Community meeting slated April 29 on school funding formula – Delaware County News Network – April 28, 2015

Haverford Township School director and chairman of the Delaware County School Boards Legislative Council Larry Feinberg will serve as moderator for a panel discussion on public school funding in southeastern Pennsylvania, 7 p.m., April 29, at Springfield High School, 49 W. Leamy Ave.
Local school district leaders will discuss how state funding issues impact children’s educational opportunities, local taxes and communities.
The public is invited and will have opportunities to ask questions and learn how to support fair and adequate state funding for public schools in southeastern Pennsylvania.

Panelists include Springfield School District School Board president and Delco Chamber of Commerce board member Frank Agovino, Springfield superintendent James Capolupo, Lower Merion School District acting superintendent Wagner Marseille, William Penn School District Superintendent Joe Bruni, Upper Darby school District Superintendent Richard Dunlap, Stanley Johnson, executive director of Operations for Phoenixville Area School District, and Susan Gobreski, executive director of Education Voters of PA.

Similar events have been taking place statewide with the goal of keeping the public informed and engaged, Feinberg said. Additionally, such events will hopefully encourage people to engage their legislators on the issue.
The event is hosted by Education Voters of PA, the Delaware County School Boards Legislative Council, Keystone State Education Coalition, Общественные граждане для детей и молодежи, and the Campaign for Fair Education Funding.
