From the Public Interest Law Center of Philadelphia (http://www.pilcop.org):
It’s official: trial in our historic case taking on the General Assembly’s system for funding schools will begin on September 9, 2021, in Courtroom 3002 of the Pennsylvania Judicial Center in Harrisburg. This date was confirmed in a June 22 scheduling order from Commonwealth Court Judge Renee Cohn Jubelirer, who will continue to preside over the case at trial. We expect that trial will last for several weeks, and a livestream will be available to the public. Learn more.
For too long, the General Assembly has failed to provide enough state funding to support high-quality public education in all school districts, regardless of local wealth. It’s time to believe in the potential of every kid in Pennsylvania public schools.
