Faced with teacher layoffs and larger class sizes, school officials, parents and students took to the streets of Wyandanch Saturday to protest $1.4 billion in statewide cuts in education aid.
About 50 community residents took part in the rally as they carried signs and chanted "Whose kids? Our kids! Can we save them? Yes, we will!"
