parents, school faculty and union members took to the streets of San Francisco yesterday as part of a coordinated day of action to protest cuts to education.<\/p>\n<p>Dubbed &#8220;The Strike and Day of Action to Defend Public Education,&#8221; the largely peaceful statewide rallies were held to protest severe cuts to education resulting in thousands of teacher layoffs, class and course terminations, higher student fees and increased class sizes.<\/p>\n<p>Demonstrators used picket signs, bullhorns, drums and sang slogans to get their collective message across: &#8220;We&#8217;re mad as hell and we&#8217;re not taking it anymore.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Facing a $20 billion State budget shortfall, public education in California is being decimated by severe cuts impacting all levels of education in many districts and school systems, including San Francisco K-12 schools, CCSF and SFSU.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

frustration with California and federal budget priorities over public education spending, including prison spending, bank bailouts and war funding.<\/p>\n<p>The San Francisco protest, which began at 24th and Mission streets, ended with a rally at Civic Center where speakers denounced the cuts and called on the State legislature to reexamine its budget priorities.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img
