Students march for school funds
Baltimore Algebra Project supporters protest plan for cuts
Chanting their familiar refrain, “No education, no life,” an estimated 300 city students and supporters met at City Hall and marched along downtown streets Wednesday demanding that the governor pay the school system $800 million from a court decision.
Under the leadership of the Baltimore Algebra Project, the protesters demanded funding to comply with a 2004 ruling that said the city schools had been unlawfully underfunded by $400 million to $800 million since 2000.
The Baltimore Algebra Project, a student-run tutoring group, had planned the protest for weeks. Members had threatened to clog up the streets at rush hour, but there was no major disruption of traffic and no one was arrested
