I'm writing to let you know that another National School Walkout is planned for Friday, April 20th at 10 a.m. local time. The National School Walkout is meant to honor and mourn students, faculty, and staff who lost their lives in school shootings across the country. April 20th also marks the 19th anniversary of the Columbine High School shooting. In advance of the April 20th National School Walkout, we encourage parents to have a discussion with their child(ren) about their possible participation. Our first priority is always for the safety and well-being of all students and staff. Principals have been encouraged to work with student leadership to determine if students are planning to walk out. Students will not be disciplined, provided they follow the guidelines established collaboratively with the principal. We want to respect the constitutional rights of students while providing a safe environment to share their voice. In addition, it is our hope that students benefit from the educational opportunity this provides.

April 20th is also Adolf Hitler’s birthday. How appropriate!

At what point did they realize that they didn’t have to teach anything and still be able to keep their jobs?

If today’s government blessed schools taught real American History the students would realized they are being used.

Happy Hitler's Birthday!

These bastards have burrowed into the government schools like an intestinal worm. This is the the global deep state at work, and anyone who dismisses it is whistling past the graveyard.

Huh? And what constitutional rights might those be when they're supposed to be in class on a regular school day.

I am walking out of school on the afternoon of June 28. For me, it will be a seven week walk out. If I am lucky, I will find something better, before I have to return in mid-August. For many of the kids that I drive to school, their next stop is the Young Offenders Centre.

How about a tax-payer revolt concerning misused funds for student walkouts.

I’d be telling the school I pay their salaries and expect my child’s teachers to be in class teaching them the standard approved curriculum.

The public schools seem to have so many late starts, early dismissals, and “inservice” days, what’s the big deal about another protest day?

So these "children", who are hell bent on massacring each other, hold these protests to blame everyone but themselves.

Teenagers are a disease. Teenagers who've undergone leftist indoctrination are a plague.

Colorado teachers are going to walk out April 26 to demand more funding and increased taxes for PERA.
