Like last Friday, a number of students from Santee and Lincoln High Schools protested budget cuts and teacher layoffs this morning. They marched to the LAUSD headquarters in downtown where Superintendent Ray Cortines spoke to them, according to Cuts Hurt Kids on Twitter. Last week, students and teachers protested ending with a around 40 educators in jail.
Update: It was originally reported as 200, but we are not hearing it's more like 400




shhh! any reason to skip school. Shame on the UTLA.
Apparently Sanjaya will do anything to stay in the media spotlight.
We had some big walk out when I was in high school too. I don't remember what it was for. Neither did most of the people walking out.
Kids just love leaving school, and if the teacher's union put them up to this it just shows a complete disregard for the student's welfare.
