| I was just coming here to ask the same thing. DD didn’t know either. |

| Why don't they put the info in the email? I can imagine what the walk out is for, but I thought the new rule was they can join protests in DC since so many people violated guidelines at the local high schools. |

| No found the ad online. It's "solidarity" for "Palestine" and "Lebanon" and there's no mention of from freeing Palestinians from Hamas or freeing Lebanon from Hezbollah so I suspect we know where this going. |

Why are these countries in quotation? |

| Does anyone have a link to the guideline for protests in FCPS and what the parameters are? |

Also, what happens if high schools start encountering the same problems as colleges with outside payed protesters and agitators show up? Is there security? Can they ask people to leave school grounds? Is it even possible to check IDs if they are outside? |

| Mark them absent and give everyone who participated a zero for the day. |

Oh, shut up. |

You can't do that. It is allowed by FCPS, but I can't find the specifics. The problem is when the messages and posters push the limits from free speech to hate speech/rhetoric and/or propaganda. I thought it was great when they had a bus for people to go protest in DC. Why not make that the norm? Give an excused absence and let the DC police decide if anything crosses the line. Let the paid protesters go there as well and keep our schools completely safe for learning. |

Could be Marshall HS. Could be Madison HS (though that's usually abbreviated JMHS). |

I think McLean High School? Marshall is GCM. Madison is JMHS. |

Fcps is freaking out about attendance this year. Protest on their own time. |
