Why some schools are suspending kids for joining gun control walkouts

Students across the country participated in school walkouts this week to demand action on gun violence, and two more widespread walkouts are planned for the next two months — on March 14, to mark one month since the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida, and on April 20, the 19th anniversary of the Columbine shooting. (A major Washington, D.C., demonstration, the March for Our Lives, is set for March 24.)

The protests are drawing attention not just for their impassioned plea, but for the ways in which various school districts are reacting to the organized action.
