YORK CITY, Pa. —The fate of York City School District has been decided. A judge ruled Friday that the state will take over the district for three years effective immediately.
The judge's order names David Meckley as receiver. Meckley is the state-appointed recovery officer and has been overseeing the district's financial recovery.
Meckley advocates a total conversion of the district's eight schools into an all charter school district. As receiver, he assumes most powers of the York School Board except the power to levy and raise taxes.
Meckley's powers take affect immediately.
The attorney for the York City School District has filed an appeal.

This really bites it. Corbutt couldn't wait to hand over York schools to his money-hungry charter cronies. Wolf wanted him to hold off so he could restore funding.
