Forced upon students by left wing teachers is more like it.

This will not have the desired effect.

Probably not.

Many kids will go along with it because they feel forced to or are forced to, but kids do NOT like being told what to do.

I could see it backfiring as the kids rebel.

Oh, personally I wouldn’t get my panties in a twist
over not doing school, My part is to show up, shut up,
and listen, learn. I would have a paperback w/me to
entertain myself.

BTW, just who is responsible for the safety and liability
of these walk out kids? I used to semi argue with my
teacher/dad about the idea of school agministrators
calling in kids and quizing them about weekend parties
and other dubious things kids do during non school
hours. Unless parental abuse is involved school officials
should MTOB lest they are prepared to assume some
financial exposure.

Students from a high school where I worked once had a walk-out.

They planned to meet up with a group from another school but their walk-out took a wrong turn and got lost.

heh heh

If you think this “offsite activity” is hazardous, what about when school officials take a minor to see an abortionist without parental notification or consent?

There is no choice in celebrating the Communist holidays of International Women’s Day or Lenin’s B-earth Day. The ribbon bullies have seen to that.

All that stuff is what I am calling out. Schools didn’t
stick their nose in family matters (which is not to say
that educators should not be mandated reporters when it
comes to things like physical abuse) in the old days.

I had a college professor do exactly that.

It was a gorgeous spring day and the class was long enough that there was a 10 minute break. Very few of us made it back to class after the break that day.

He was livid. Pop quiz: only question, “what is your name?”

Am I safe in assuming you refused to sign the permission slip?
