Deal keeps city schools open on weekends, councilman says

"Great news! City Council, the Council President and the Mayor have collectively worked together in partnership with the School District of Philadelphia to ensure we are able to use our public school gyms without interruptions for the remainder of the season. The facilities will still close an hour early during the week (at 8 PM). Thank you to everyone who contacted me and helped convey to the elected officials and School District to remind us that we need to put our kids first."
