A potentially game-changing school funding lawsuit in Pennsylvania is tentatively scheduled to go to trial Sept. 9, a Commonwealth Court judge ordered Thursday. The decision comes seven years after the petitioners, which include the School District of Lancaster, filed the initial lawsuit stating Pennsylvania’s education funding system dangerously shortchanges public school students, especially those from low-income communities, in violation of the state constitution. Representing the petitioners are the Education Law Center and Public Interest Law Center. “I am excited that we will finally have our day in court to prove that our students are entitled by law to an adequate education that provides them with the same opportunities as their more privileged peers,” Lancaster Superintendent Damaris Rau said during a virtual press conference about the lawsuit Friday.
