Fighting for Safety in our Schools

The National School Walkout, planned by Women’s March organizers, will be on March 14 at 10 am in each time zone. It calls for students, faculty, parents, and others to walk out of school for 17 minutes — one minute for each person who was killed in the Florida school shooting. For more, check out the official website and Facebook page.

Women’s March Youth EMPOWER is calling for students, teachers, school administrators, parents and allies to take part in a #NationalSchoolWalkout for 17 minutes at 10am across every time zone on March 14, 2018 to protest Congress’ inaction to do more than tweet thoughts and prayers in response to the gun violence plaguing our schools and neighborhoods. We need action. Students and allies are organizing the national school walkout to demand Congress pass legislation to keep us safe from gun violence at our schools, on our streets and in our homes and places of worship.

#Enough
I'll have to ask the district and the SEA what their thoughts are.  I had suggested that rather than leaving or staying out for a long period, that students, teachers and staff could walk out, circle the building (or be in front of it) and join hands as a symbol of school unity against violence.

The superintendent of Grand Rapids, Michigan is okaying everyone to walk out.  

John Helmholdt, GRPS communications director, said the administration will be sending communications to parents and staff with detailed information about the process and structure of the walk out.

He said the school will take a very structured approach to the walk out and a parent opt-in form, like a permission slip for the protest, will be sent out. The forms will need to be submitted by March 9.

I note this is DeVos' home turf.  Interesting.

From the Washington Post:

Organizers of a rally against mass shootings planned for next month in Washington are expecting up to 500,000 attendees, according to an event permit application.

The application filed this week with the National Park Service indicates the “March for Our Lives” will be March 24, although a location hasn’t been determined. The rally, organized by survivors of last week’s school massacre in Parkland, Fla., will have “sister marches” in other major cities, organizers said.

The rally’s website and Facebook page indicate marches in London, Philadelphia, Houston and Broward County, Fla., where a gunman killed 17 people at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Feb. 14.

Hollywood star George Clooney and his wfe, Amal, who is a human rights lawyer, pledged $500,000 to help fund a student march on Washington demanding gun-control reforms. 

Here is the info for the Seattle March for our Lives on Saturday, March 24 at 10 AM at Cal Anderson Park on Capitol Hill

Here's the March for our Lives Seattle Facebook page.

First, we would like to introduce ourselves. Emilia Allard and Rhiannon Rasaretnam are the co-organizers for the Seattle march and we are seniors from Ballard and Tahoma High School respectively. We are tired of inaction from Congress and are joining students across the nation who are taking it upon themselves to push for change surrounding gun laws.

April 4th is the 2018 Black Lives Matter march in Seattle at Westlake Park, starting at noon.  Here's the Facebook page for that event.


There is also a walk-out planned for April 20th which will be the 19th anniversary of the Columbine High School shootings.

The Plan:
On Friday, April 20th, the 19th anniversary of the Columbine shooting I propose a National High School student walk out. Walk out of school, wear orange and protest online and in your communities. Sign the petition if you pledge to do so. Nothing has changed since Columbine, let us start a movement that lets the government know the time for change is now. #nationalschoolwalkout
