What needs to be planned for a school protest?

I'm a student in high school, and me and my friends are planning to organize a day when we ask people not to come to school because of the budget cuts. the school board is cutting a lot of teachers, and they're doing it on a basis of how long the teachers have been in the district. Many of the teachers that are new are some of the best teachers. i believe the students should have some say in these matters, but when we say something they say the teachers told us to, as if we don't have a voice. they are cutting our cles and the teachers that teach them. The athletics haven't been touched, they love their athletics too much, but the teachers that teach my core cles are being cut, and my academy within the school is a special program, The International Baccalaureate Programme, and the teachers have to get special training to teach these cles. they have already decided to cut several of my teachers: my spanish teacher, my english teacher, ect. and then next year they are going to have to train new teachers. we are planning this to be sort of a student strike. we aren't sure we'll do it at the beginning of next year, or within the next 2 weeks. but i was wondering what types of things do we have to do in order to make this happen?
