Children First has been working closely with students from William Penn School District (one of the plaintiffs in the Fair Funding Lawsuit in Pennsylvania) to co-produce a student-led podcast, PENNding Funds, that shares their thoughts, frustrations, experiences, and hopes for future of education funding. These insightful interviews show how unfair funding has denied students a \\u201cthorough and efficient\\u201d education in their district. I spoke with three students, Trinity Giddings (11th), Paul Vandy (11th) and Lisa Asamoah (12th), who work with the Children First K-12 Team and two William Penn alumni, Ms. Susan Norton (\\u201987), now an English teacher at Penn Wood High School, and Jacob McCann (\\u201915). This dedicated group meets twice a week to edit their scripts and record episodes to be shared with the community at large to invoke conversations about the Fair Funding Lawsuit that begin in November 2021.
