There has been some talk among the students in my county (Loudoun Co in NoVA) about their being a potential walk out by students in HS and maybe MS to protest our new Secretary of Education.
We received an email from the School Dept about the walkout and the discipline that the students could receive.

Someone posted on a FB page that surfaced recently to help deal with the President and the stuff he is doing, a question if a parent gave the students a permission to leave school if that would affect the walk-out.The high school principals of Loudoun County Public Schools are aware of a potential student walkout Friday afternoon.
Activities that disrupt instruction are against School Board policy regardless of the cause or viewpoint of those taking part.
Principals have met with students planning the walkout and have developed plans to ensure safety procedures are followed if students leave the building. Principals also have let students know this would be treated as a disruption of the school day. The usual discipline involved with being tardy or skipping class would be applied to those taking part in a walkout.
This led me to two related questions and I figured the FFA might be an interesting place to get some answers.
1) Does having support from your parents lessen the 'toughness' of the walk-out because you know you are free from trouble?
2) Does having support from the parents increase the 'power' of the walk-out because it shows the School Dept. that the parents are involved and interested too?
