So goddamn Philly

This story is insanely Philly and I can't get over it:
School said to double as nightclub to be investigated
City Controller Alan Butkovitz accused Harambee of running a school by day but a nightclub after hours. The school was "found to be operating a nightclub and serving alcohol illegally" on weekends, he said. Harambee Charter is on 66th Street near Media.

Harambee School was incorporated on Aug. 8, 1997, and received $14.7 million in public funds in 2005-2007.

So corrupt. Using state/city money for a charter school and then using that charter school to make money for yourself. If I weren't so amused by the idea, I'd be OUTRAGED. :)

It's like trusting your kids to these guys:
