Hundreds of New York City kids walked out of school Friday and staged a pro-Palestinian protest that was promoted by several radical teacher groups.
Some 350 students had descended on the Department of Education headquarters at the Tweed Courthouse in Lower Manhattan starting by 4 p.m..
They were seen waving signs on the front steps of the building calling for a cease-fire in Gaza and describing Israel’s military offensive on the region following the Oct. 7 terror attack as “genocide.”
The walkout was organized by Teachers Unite and a handful of other groups, including NYC Educators for Palestine, the Palestine Youth Movement, Al-AWDA NY, Movement of MORE Rank-&-File Educators, and Desis Rising Up and Moving, according to a protest toolkit viewed by The Post.
“I’m fighting for humanity, I don’t care what they do,” said another student from Stuyvesant High School, describing how they didn’t care about being punished by school brass for walking out.
“I took an absent day,” she added when asked if she was worried about being punished for leaving class.
A freshman from LaGuardia High School, who declined to give his name, said about 50 to 100 people walked out of the school at noon.
“We’re not exactly sure yet if we’ll be facing any penalties,” he said.
Another sophomore from Stuyvesant High School, 16-year-old Bogdan, said he came to the demonstration after dismissal so as to not face any repercussions for cutting class as had been threatened.

New York is just one big insane asylum.
But they are not indoctrinating our children, oh no!
As are all leftist run cities 🌃 🏙 🌆.
Hear their chants: “Stop Israeli genocide!”, “Free Palestine!”, “Death to Jews!”
Those teachers should have their teaching credentials removed, and be treated like child sex offenders for the rest of their lives.
Lock the doors and get every one of them ID’d including photographs.
Fire the indoctrinators and kick the students out for one year.
.
So did her brain.
RE: Educators for Palestine, the Palestine Youth Movement, Al-AWDA NY, Movement of MORE Rank-&-File Educators, and Desis Rising Up and Moving.
Why do I feel like it’s the 1950s and 1960s again? Commies everywhere.
Too bad we can’t grill them like Joe McCarthy.
woudl be nice if kids all walked out on LGBTQ grooming classes- CRT classes- ans the like!
Agreed
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Aneeta Bhole? Lol.
What’s next, “The poisonous mushroom” as a reading assignment?
Look that up.
This is beyond disgusting. Teachers had lost their licenses in the past for far less. The idiot chancellor is obviously in on this. He should cancel the teaching license of all who were involved. But no, he’s part of the “chocolate” team that mayor Adams is so proud of. Anyone with half a brain, leave NYC! For the sake of your children’s sanity, leave NYC and have them get a truly decent education.
They don't even know what they're chanting about, nor can they find the affected area on a map. Ignorant little bastards, fit only to listen to trash music.
