Occupy Spin off Protests School Closures in NY

Protesters Rally Against Closures To No Avail

Protesters rallied this evening to prevent the closing of  over twenty schools in NY. The group is thought to be a spin off of the occupy group. Although efforts were made to disrupt the meeting for the school closures, they were just considered a disturbance. The closures are said to greatly effect lower income areas, as well as schools with learning impaired programs. There were no arrests at the time.
