CHICAGO – Scores of parents, students, teachers, public school employees and community residents are gearing up for the next stage in their fight to save 129 schools from the chopping block. While the District contemplates how many neighborhood schools they will shutter this year, taxpayers who have had enough of these top-down, draconian measures are strategizing on how to elevate their voices in the school closing fight.

An anti-school closings march and rally is planned for 4 p.m. on March 27 in downtown Chicago. Demonstrators will gather at Daley Plaza, proceed to City Hall and then head toward the Board of Education.
