Tony Danza's Holding Town Hall on Philly Education

U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan is joining actor-turned-teacher Tony Danza for a town hall meeting on teaching.
      
Monday's event at Temple University in Philadelphia will include a panel discussion of the rewards and challenges of teaching as well as information on how to enter the profession.
      
Panelists include local teachers, a principal, Philadelphia schools Superintendent Arlene Ackerman, Duncan and Danza.
      
The actor spent a year as a 10th-grade English instructor at Northeast High School in Philadelphia for the A&E reality show called "Teach."
      
At a separate event on Monday afternoon, Duncan and Gov. Ed Rendell will discuss the state of education in Pennsylvania.
