About Us

Memberships in PLUS is open to Pennsylvania school districts in urban areas. This includes central cities of a "Metropolitan Statistical Area" and districts in which the students and community exhibit poverty, cultural diversity, industrial flight, middle class flight, shrinking tax base, obsolete or decaying buildings including schools, and population density.

 

Presently PLUS school district members represent more than 25 percent of the students in Pennsylvania.

 

This year, PLUS has been active in Harrisburg pursuing the interests of urban school children in partnership with:

 

The Pennsylvania School Funding Campaign

Pennsylvanians Opposed to Vouchers

Better Choices for Pennsylvania, a coalition for a responsible budget
