Absolutely not!! They must be in school to learn. Politics should be outside of school hours. Oregon already has a graduation, test score problem. Keep politics out of the schools. So sick of politics

Students need to be in school! If they want to make this earth better study hard get a great education and come up with solutions that will fix the problems. Protesting does not fix problems!!!

ReplyIf they did it on a Saturday nobody would even know about it or care, politics is a topic that will hugely affect them and their future!
ReplyPolitics is life and death, if they are educated enough in the issues facing the world that they want to protest, they should be allowed to.
ReplySince the parents won't do it the children must.
ReplyAdults are ignoring the science. relying only on what's here now. and how changing their carbon footprint would affect their lifestyle
ReplyWhat better way is there for students to become a part of the process whereby the public lets their representatives know what is important to them?
ReplyYES BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT LEARNING ANYTHING USEFUL IN SCHOOLS ANYMORE!!!
ReplyOnly if they are willing to accept the consequences of skipping school (missed lessons, homework...)
ReplyBe aware, be involved! These students are our future and have every right to protest when they see an issue that needs attention!
