Last night, more than 2,000 students, parents, educators, and other community members joined a rally organized by the OSI-funded Baltimore Education Coalition, demand that state and local officials fix the $190 million gap in funding for Baltimore City Public Schools. Mayor Pugh, addressing the crowd, said that on Monday, she will announce a plan to do just that, though she did not provide any details.

The rally received wide-ranging media attention:
