Can food should be dropped off at the school lobby. All money should be given to Mrs. Solomon to donate to the homeless. Our Annual Can Food Drive helps several area shelters feed the homeless. The cans are used to make big pots of soup to feed the homeless a meal.

2015 – 2016 SCHOOL YEAR
According to a report from the School District of Philadelphia, The Mathematics, Civics and Sciences Charter School has the highest graduation rate and college placement rate of all public and public charter schools in the city of Philadelphia.
When a student leaves the Philadelphia School District for a charter school, the system is left with nearly $5,000 in continuing costs, according to a report released Thursday.
The amount — $4,824 — is less than the $7,000 in so-called stranded costs that the Boston Consulting Group estimated for the district in 2012.
