Today's rally at Toms River High School South presages tomorrow's anticipated rally at the State House in Trenton, protesting revised plans for state aid to schools that threaten to deplete the regional district's budget by $3,300,000 every year. Organizers hope to hire up to 100 buses to ferry teachers, students, parents, taxpayers, school board members, staffers and administrators to the demonstration. If Governor Christie approves the legislative plan, it would begin this fall.

Beaches registering a second day of escalated bacteria will be closed to swimmers.
