The 'Save Our Schools' lobby group is protesting the review and possible closure of rural schools this afternoon in Regina.

A number of speeches were heard this afternoon outside the Legislature from 'Save Our Schools' spokesperson, David Gleim, who spoke on the importance of funding rural schools as equally as those in Saskatoon and Regina.

Learning Minister, Deb Higgins, also addressed the crowd telling those in attendence that the government is trying to provide for schools across the province. Frustrated shouts were apparent during the Minister's presentation.

The rally is expected to continue until later this afternoon.
