LOS ANGELES (KTLA) -- Rallies are happening across the state Tuesday to draw attention to the budget crisis facing public schools.

More than 2 dozen schools from San Francisco to San Diego are getting in on the effort, which was organized by parent-led non-profit Educate Our State.

As many as 300 protesters at Millikan Junior High School in Sherman Oaks waved signs and chanted "no more cuts" at passers by.
