Research for Action (RFA) has been tracking changes in 86 Philadelphia schools that were originally identified as "low-performing" and targeted for intervention following the state takeover of the School District of Philadelphia in 2001. This document outlines some of the numerous changes that have occurred in these "Original 86" schools, including changes in their providers, their grade configurations, leadership turnover, and the amount of additional per-pupil funding directed to providers/schools. The document is intended to help the public and educators alike to better understand and follow the twists and turns of the current reform initiative. (Contains 2 color enhanced tables.)
