Yep, he WAS suspended for not participating in the March. He wanted to continue the regular school day, was told he had to March or go to a special room - because the Educators left his normal scheduled class. He refused. You can bet almost all the teachers marched according to AFT Commands.
That's being punished for trying to continue an ordinary school day.
The little brat doesn't decide what goes on in school,that's in the purview of the teachers & administrators.
"he stayed in class instead of joining the largely anti-gun protest or an alternative “study hall.”
That's being punished for trying to continue an ordinary school day.
“Student refused to follow instructions after being warned repeatedly by several administrators,” the letter said. “Student not permitted on school property.”

Alt right insane spin much ?
At many schools nobody walked out. Some had some sort of brief activity/memorial. The idea that unions gave marching orders to teachers is absurd.
But the most absurd of all is the idea that the student was being punished for reasons you imply.
What's the punishment ?
Is it that he couldn't go to class becasue it was cancelled when most of the students (and possibly that teacher - but I seriously doubt it - although some would go if for no other reason than to keep the kids out of trouble) went on the march ?
Or was it becasue he was suspended for refusing to go to the other location if he was not going on the march when class is cancelled.
News flash: at any high school, students aren't going to be allowed to just wander around if their class was cancelled....
Kids can walk out wherever cause they feel like protesting and this student cannot?
“Student refused to follow instructions after being warned repeatedly by several administrators,” the letter said. “Student not permitted on school property.”'
School district spokesperson Stacie Raterman said official policy prohibited school officials from leaving Shoemaker unattended in the building for “security reasons,”
You can't make this cultural-marxist, leftist school indoctrination up even if you tried your hardest. Unfuckingbelievable.
He insisted on staying in the room the class was, where there was no adult (meaning next he could do whatever), rather than go to the prescribed location for students from that class that were not going on the march.
What would you have the school administrators do ?
Let Republicans die from bullet shooting devices.

So you think teenagers would never, on their own, try to organize a protest of something ? Really ?
And if they do, it's true that a school can't stop a large number of kids from leaving at once.
What would you have the school administrators do ?
AS if I thought you would ever seriously ponder my question. Hahahaha. I make myself laugh.
Where were the adults? Oh yes, encouraging and accompanying the March, in lieu of doing their jobs.
suspend the one kid that stays exactly where they should be, IN THE CLASSROOM!

THey had a different classroom location for him to go. He refused. You're trying too hard to make this about something it isn't. But then again, lies sell here a lot better than they used to. And I'm not about to bother taking them on.
You still don't understand.

Kids at many or most schools did not walk out. Many schools arranged brief little moratoriums, internally to occur at that time. At large schools where it was determined that a large number of kids planned on participating, they did what was smart, let the kids go out for a while, chant their little protests, and even have some adults follow them to keep them out of trouble. Police are informed as well.

Why should he go to a different classroom? Was there a tornado warning and all the kids were sent to the safest, windowless part of the structure?
Why wasn't the teacher in the classroom, conducting class as normal?
Why should the kid be suspended for staying in his class.
Good for him, question authority.
Yet it's the kid who refused to participate and wanted to continue the school day that got suspended.
Total BS.
Agreed. It's crazy that this is even debated. it's like going into a store and being punished for not shoplifting like the others, but paying for your stuff. I don't want to weigh in on the protests, don't really care about them and the school's reaction, however whatever they do they should make sure that enough teachers are at school teaching, that's where the taxpayer money goes to. When in doubt let the others take off to their protests and notify their parents that they are running lose and the school does not assume responsibility because the teachers are at school where they are supposed to be.
IF he wanted to continue the school day, he goes to the study hall for that one period (as instructed) and then attends all his other classes after that.
If the kids left, the teachers conduct class as normal, and send a note home with the missing textbook pages for the protesters to follow up on their own time.
Hey, she got that small class size she wanted, same pay less work.
In most cases, that's what happened. But ooooh Brietbart found an example where it went down a little differently.
So the kid should be suspended?
What are you missing here ?
He is asked to go to a study hall where other students and an adult are present
I'm quite sure they asked him repeatedly.
They have rules and policies.
Maybe you have a legit argument about a very small percentage of teachers encouraging students to participate. I beleive less than 1%. Guaranteed it's under 2%.
But that's independent of that particular student's refusal to go to another location where an adult is present and thus being suspended.
California high school history teacher Julianne Benzel was put on paid leave after questioning in front of her students whether school administrations would let a group of students protesting abortion walk out of class in the middle of the school day like they did with students who did so on Wednesday in protests over school shootings.
“I opened up the discussion for if schools … are going to allow one group of students to get up during class and walk out to protest on one issue, would they still give the same courtesy to another group of students who wanted to get up and walk out in protest. And I used the example of abortion,” Rocklin High School teacher Benzel said on Fox News Friday morning.
Benzel said two students and one parent took issue with her comment and complained to the administration who then placed her on leave for two days.
The California teacher said she was trying to a start a class discussion ahead of National Walkout Day on whether the situation would be treated the same way if a school walkout was organized from the other side of the political aisle.
people are for stricter gun control laws.
Higher percentages if you specify something like large capacity magazines.
It's true that we can't have walk outs all the time over random issues of the week.
That's a far cry form some commie marxist indoctrination camps that the whackos on the right want to make them out to be.
Yes, a majority of school admins and teachers are typically center to left of center who vote democrat. Deal with it.

Nothing.

Where is the adult that's supposed to be in his classroom, teaching at her regular appointed hour?
marcus saysI'm quite sure they asked him repeatedly.
He has a right to be educated. And the taxpayer is paying that adult to instruct him. Where did she go?
marcus saysThey have rules and policies.
Ohio has mandatory schooling laws like every state in the nation.

Where were you on February 14th?
Isn't that the role of the NRA ?
