Student Walk Out - what would you do?

[NJBarb]

So yesterday HS students all over the state walked out in protest of budget cuts in their schools - i read on one board that some kids said they knew it was just an excuse to cut class and most of them didnt know much about the budget. I think kids should have free speech and expression but if there are consequences for cutting class i think they should be ready to take the consequences - also would like to know how much the teachers put this bee in their bonnet - i dont know another case of high school students organizing a protest on a state wide level.

I agree and will have more about it most likely. I think the NJEA is encouraging it and the students should not be protesting during school hours. I don't think the schools, teachers and administrators would be so understanding if they were protesting AGAINST the union.
