Introduction

13 Firsts is a student-led podcast created by duPont Manual students about the educational and social injustices seen in our communities, whether that is in our county, state, or country. 13 Firsts covers issues all across the country, and from every grade level. Our hope is to inform anyone about the problems we see in our education system and what solutions can be made to fix them.
