2013-06-18

Parents and school workers are enter the second day of a fast for safe schools. Watch and see why they have taken this step to demand the city an state make safety in Philadelphia schools a priority.

"The fast is to protect our children... Without funding to keep the student safety staff it will be an unsafe environment, they won't get an education and they will only get harmed. Parents won't be able to rest. It is a snowball effect that will affect everyone eventually."
- Marcia Teagle
School food service worker participating in the fast
