Climate walkout. Are you allowing your high school student to attend?

Our daughter has only one academic class tomorrow due to planned teacher absence. So I am leaning towards giving her permission. But I am concerned about crowd control and negotiating the metro in a crowd. She is a freshman. How are others handling this?

Not a walkout if it’s allowed. It’s karaoke.

If she is going with friends I’d say yes for sure.

I'd let mine but she gets to go observe a lung resection tomorrow which she is all pumped about. Freshman too - I'd be fine with it if she wanted to.

NP. Fake activism. That students who walk out should do it and suffer the co sequences for their actions. So whatever would happen if they walked out on a regular Friday.

Ours is allowed to go after the school day is over.

It’s an unexcused absence so isn’t that the same as any other day?

Yes. But getting mommy’s permission? Just go.

I would have gone with kabuki activism. At least not as bad as the climate protest Monday that plans on forcing thousands of cars and buses to idle in traffic -- all in support of the planet.

I let them decide. This time I don’t think either will attend.

Once the boomers die this fake activism can die with them.

A couple schools are taking kids or giving excused absences. That’s a field trip. Not activism. But for this issue I dont care. All in.

I’ve seen two locations identified as the starting point : John Marshall park and white
House. Anyone know where the start is?
