Youth March

Planned, Organized and Executed by youths!
Monday, October 2 @ 4 p.m.
Meet at West Main St. & Fitzhugh St.

The Campaign for Fiscal Equity will be back in court on October 10th of this year. The inequities in education continue to grow and children are becoming aware of the fact that they are not being given the same educational opportunities that other children have in wealthier districts. For instance, students in the Rochester City School District spend $6.00 per student on library books, while suburban districts spend $17.00 per student! The same goes for arts, sports, etc.

For some children, this march is the first time they are taking a stand and protesting a social injustice. We encourage all Metro Justice members to help make their event a success. Support our children as they fight back against a system that is failing them. Come and listen to them! They want to be heard.

Then on October 10th, there will be a statewide rally on the steps of the NYS Court of Appeals. We will be rotating people into the courthouse so they can witness history in action. To reserve your seat on the bus, Please contact Rosemary @ 585-288-4693
