Prostesting in New Jersey

Students took to the streets as New Jersey's Gov. Christopher Christie announced school budget cuts. It all began with Facebook. An 18-year old created a Facebook event; 18,000 people accepted creating one of the largest local protests in New Jersey history. They walked out in the middle of school disrupting standardized testing. They help up signs and yelled out against the budget cuts. The budget cuts would reduce aid to over 600 districts by about 5%. Five percent may not sound like a lot, but 1% of our district's budget amounts to all of our laptops. So think what 5% could do.
