Kenney Administration Progress Report: Our investments in education
Posted by City of Philadelphia on October 24, 2023
Throughout his two terms as mayor, Jim Kenney has consistently acted on his belief in the importance of public education not only as a means to give children a chance to achieve their full potential but also as a central pillar of the fight against generational poverty.
The City’s progress in public education over the last eight years – achieved in partnership with City Council – is a testament to Mayor Kenney’s commitment to improving the lives of young Philadelphians through a holistic approach centered on historic investments in early education, robust resources and activities for students and families, and post-secondary access.
If education is a measure of success for any government, then the numbers tell the story of Philadelphia’s progress over the last eight years.
