New York City schools will excuse absences for students who wish to participate in “climate strikes” taking place at various locales on September 20.
Those Interested will need parental permission, and “younger” students must be accompanied by a parent, according to a school district tweet.
“We applaud our students when they raise their voices in a safe and respectful manner on issues that matter to them,” another district tweet read.
NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio joined the Twitter fun in praising students for their activism, and invoked the ever-shrinking amount of time humans have to prevent Earth’s destruction: “We have ten years to save the planet. TEN YEARS. Today’s leaders are making decisions for our environment that our kids will have to live with.”

Greta Thunburg is in the U.S. She was the official figurehead of climate strikes marching out of school in Sweden. We know she’s a figurehead because teachers and administrators forced people to join. And punished those that didn’t.
Swedish schoolgirl who refused to take part in one of campaigner Greta Thunberg’s ‘climate strikes’ is ‘bullied by her own teacher’ and labelled a ‘climate denier’

Well heck yeah. Opposing view points will NOT be allowed by the ever tolerant left. Because, well, because they’re all open minded and stuff. Unless you have a different view of something. Hell, of anything.
“We applaud our students when they raise their voices in a safe and respectful manner on issues that matter to them,” another district tweet read.
Will the New York City schools issue excused absences, for students who miss school, to raise their voices in a safe and respectful manner on the issue of our 2nd amendment rights?
What about our 1st amendment rights, if students want to attend a safe and respectful rally for the pro life cause?
If they are saying, that the criteria here are, that they excuse students who want to raise their voices in a safe and respectful manner on issues of the day, do they really mean it, for ALL issues?
I’d also add...when, in the history of the world, has the climate NOT changed?
Yeah, cause when I was a snot nosed kid in school I’d sure like a reason to bail out of classes for a day. Especially if I was scheduled to take a test.
As if they’re going to actually miss anything.
NY going, going, gone the way of its crazy sister California.
I would always schedule a 200 point test for those days. Questions for the students that stayed were
What is your name?
What is my name?
How old are you?
School district policy said I had to allow a make-up test. So I scheduled them for after school in two parts, one part a day. Each part was a six week test from previous class materials.
I think it’s great. Let them all skip school all the time. Think of the zillions of dollars we’d save, and the outcome couldn’t be worse than what we have now.
Meanwhile, students in Asia are learning Calculus and other STEM courses.
You are aware you’re driving the wrong way on a one way street right? LOL!
Nah. The indoctinators will still get paid. Maybe some cost savings on utilities but, if we can save muvver erf, isn’t it worth it?
Cool - I think it’s time for schools to support gun rights strikes too.
It also means New York City schools MUST provide excused absences to take place in pro-life marches, pro-ICE marches and support for MAGA.
It’s all about scaring the stupid kids with the Global Warming Scam
Its not a “strike” if you’re allowed to leave.
If all the school employees received their salaries for staying at home, those with actual skills could go out and get real, productive jobs. If they have demonstrated success at teaching, for example, they could work at private schools!
i wonder if the school will approve a walkout in support of ‘man-caused climate change is a hoax’?
