I'll start with you, Jamie, on that one.
- I think it is great.
I feel like everyone should have the opportunity to speak their own voice and their opinion.
'Cause everyone has their own opinion and everyone's opinion matters, you know?
- Yeah.
- Like, I don't know, I just, it's just honestly been great being able to like, try to help people, inspire people.
Just being able to speak my voice.
- [Jerome] Yeah.
How about you, Austin?
- It's been cool.
Definitely when, like, I hear about more schools wanting to do a podcast or wanting to come to our school to come see our stuff and come see how we run things.
It's definitely a cool thing to be a part of because it's like, we're kids so some people think we don't have a voice, but part of being American is everyone has a voice, so that's the cool part about it.
Being able to see those other school leaders at other schools seeing us with our voice, they want their kids to have a voice too.
