About me
Marni Spear is a student in the Class of 2027 at Mount Vernon School in Atlanta, GA. As a co-author and co-presenter of this work, she brings something no adult in the room can offer: the unfiltered perspective of a student living inside the system being examined. Her willingness to research, write, and speak honestly about what students observe but rarely say publicly is the foundation of this session. Marni's voice represents the thousands of students who already know what this conversation is about.
