: : : : v. :
: : CITY OF PHILADELPHIA , WALTER G. :
SMITH ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AND : :
THE SCHOOL DISTRICT OF :
PHILADELPHIA
: : : : PETITION OF: THE SCHOOL DISTRICT :
OF PHILADELPHIA
ORDER PER CURIAM
AND NOW , this 11th day of July, the Petition for Allowance of Appeal is GRANTED . The issues, as stated by petitioner, are:
a. Whether the Commonwealth Court’s conclusion that the alleged
negligence in this case concerned real property impermissibly broadens the real property exception and requires school districts to take unreasonable steps (and steps the court does not specify) to protect themselves from liability?
b. Whether [Respondents’] claim of a defect in the real property is properly
construed as a claim of negligent supervision when the actual negligence *2 involved, if any, pertained to the supervision of students and was not related to real property?
