The corner of Sycamore and Cochran was jam-packed with Teachers, students, parents, family, well wishers and supporters to protest the letting go a our most valuable community resource. State budget cuts have ripped into education and have left Californians angry and upset. The layers of government between the schools and Sacramento soak up a significant part of the school budgets and it is painfully clear that the cuts were made to the wrong people in the system. This protest and demonstration was the largest I have seen in Simi and hopefully their voice can carry over into the next election.
