Picture This! The Real Cost of Prison Expansion, in front of Benjamin Franklin High School.

 

This past fall, Benjamin Franklin High School lost $2.1 million, 26% of its budget, to Governor Corbett’s funding cuts. They lost 19 teachers, an assistant principal, and the entire culinary arts program. And they had to downsize their Student Success Center, a key support for connecting students to college access.
