MARCH 4: Statewide General STRIKE for PUBLIC EDUCATION
On March 4th, students and employees at colleges throughout the state will join with K-12 students and teachers in a STRIKE for PUBLIC EDUCATION. We want to demonstrate that the “business-as-usual” model of education in California is failing our students, our workers, and our citizens. Join us by STAYING HOME FROM SCHOOL ON MARCH 4.
