Students Demand Respect For The "Rights" Of Illegal Immigrants

And check this out from the original article--it doesn't seem like school officials in California were too concerned about enforcing disciple:
But district officials and teachers walked with students who chose to leave. 'The No. 1 priority for us is student safety,' Thorstenson said. 'It's going to be more of the same tomorrow if this happens again. 'Our students are smart, they're engaged, and many are aware of policy that impacts the community,' she added.
My, my...she certainly does sound proud.
I heard the same mealy-mouthed stuff from a local school district official on the radio here in Houston this morning (we also had student walkouts). The official was using "the kids' safety" as a justification for the use of school buses to haul the kids back to school; never mind how they got downtown to begin with.
The buses were sent by the Houston Independent School District to drive students back to Austin, Davis and Sam Houston high schools. By 1 p.m., school officials announced that the students were back on their campuses."Our main concern right now is to make sure the kids stay safe and return to school,'' HISD spokesman Terry Abbott Abbott said.
How about keeping their students in class in the first place?
