## Resource

School is officially back in session. Philly students may be returning to the classroom, but the same can’t be said for all teachers. Host Trenae Nuri, creative producer Siani Colόn, and Eric Marsh Sr., director of the Philadelphia Center for Gun Violence Reporting, dig into the state of Philly schools and what’s driving teachers out of the district. They also play a round of Real Estate Roulette to guess how much landlords are charging for rent. And they make their pitch on where the Philly Portal should move.
