    To all of the students walking out tomorrow: I am SO PROUD of you. 4 of my own children in elementary, middle, and high school will be walking out. They are making their protest signs & getting ready right now. This is my 9 year old. Her sign says: We Have a Right to Livepic.twitter.com/8dvRiwI1f4

        My 9 year old wants to change the world. I’m so proud of kids all over the country that are walking out today. 4 of my kids are walking out. If your kids are walking out, send them my love please. Tell them I’m proud of them.pic.twitter.com/Pdfwa1S21F

        The students at my school were running one, but the school took over. No longer is about gun control and change, it’s now about first responders with thoughts and prayers. We can’t even make our own sign. I wish I could walk out, but I can’t support them for changing the meaning

        Beavercreek High School in Ohio. It was student run and we originally had the support of the staff, but apparently it wasn’t really support. I believe almost no one walked out because what it became. It’s disappointing to go to a school who doesn’t listen to the students

        I’m hoping we’re able to eventually. We didn’t know they had changed it that much until yesterday. By that time it was too late to take it back. Thanks you for the support, it’s hard to get it since our city is very conservative.

        Proud of you all for denying their need to control the situation. You all will find a way to show them they cannot control everything when the moment is right. Don't stop fighting.

        As a teacher, I am proud of these students but in my district we cannot support, or join, but know even if we don’t join you- We see and hear you, and are so proud!!

        My son asked what we thought he should do and we told him either way we support him but if it was us we would walk out. He is walking out too!

        As with most or all of the other educators here, I'm not allowed to "support or encourage", but believe me, I'll be walking as close to the line as I can. Go, kids, go!
