Students in Loudoun County, Virginia, are planning a walkout in protest of recent sexual assault cases at the public school system and to show solidarity with victims of such abuses.
"Students who choose to participate will not be penalized for their participation; however, we do ask that students who participate do so peacefully, without signage, and in accordance with the Students Rights and Responsibilities we all reviewed and signed at the beginning of the year," said Michelle Luttrell, the principal at Loudoun County High School, according to WUSA.
A judge found a boy guilty on Monday of sexually assaulting a girl in the girl’s bathroom last spring at Stone Bridge High School. The boy was reportedly wearing a skirt during the incident.

Any type of protest when I was in school usually meant detention or suspension. We did a few sit ins to protest minor student issues, but this is next level. The students won’t be penalized for participating, what message does that send? I’m so conflicted.
How transphobic of them. /sarc
“without signage” - LOL, then it’s just a mass of truant students having a good time, eh?
Sorry I’m so cynical. But my first thought is how they have to choose between “transexual rights” and victim’s rights.
I’ll bet they gloss over the trannie issue and assure us they’re not against trannies. (Even though this is not a real trannie issue - just that lots of guys will take full advantage of it.)
I’m sure some are serious but most just see it as a way to avoid class.
“I’ll get the day off? Hell Yes I’m protesting!”
Don’t walk. Stand and fight against the people and policies that allowed this to happen.
> without signage <
Yes, you can protest. Just don’t let anyone know what you’re protesting.
As a side note, feminists go crazy when a woman is assaulted. And rightly so! But evidently an exception is made if a transgender is the perp.
good for them. You should be able to go to school, use a restroom without being sexually assaulted.
Great news hope it catches on! I have some faith in the younger generation, my kids are 20 and 21 and have their heads on fairly straight.
It somewhat feels like the tide is turning or at least people are waking up and the govt (susan rice/obama/val jarrett) is finding out they are going to get some push back on some of the agenda.
Lord please give these kids strength.
Are they protesting in support of the guy in a skirt?
I’m serious.
I wonder if the Students signed an agreement not to be raped/sodomized in the restrooms?
Seems to me the “contract” with the school was voided when the administration ignored and denied the event.
Not only should they have signage...they should have pitchforks.
I think the kids these days have been schooled to be protesters.
Better late than never done at all.
How embarrassing/ shameful for the school district. They have not done much to protect the students from predators and abusers.
Sexual predators can be of ANY age. So long as they are aware of what they’re doing. Often (not always) such dysfunctional behavior is learned at home.
Sings demanding resignation, prosecution, and elimination of CRT/Homo agenda would not allow media rebranding of the Protest.
I don’t know on this one...if young women we being raped in the restrooms of your high school and the administration was more afraid of the trannies than safety of the remainder of the students—that might have gotten me out on the street.
No signage is the policy. That’s cute, and unconstitutional.
Feminists only go crazy when a conservative is accused. Heck feminists love female assaulter-ers when they are democrats that do the assaulting.
Feminists are very disingenuous
I’m serious.
Without signs, the Media would try to sell that.
In all my years teaching, I found that students were very fond of any excuse to ditch.
If the students understand that it’s not just about the sexual assault but the policies that allowed it to happen then I’m all for their walkout. It’s important that they understand.
