California teacher put on leave for questioning walkouts.
California school teacher Julianne Benzel was put on leave for her in-class discussion of the politics of pre-planned student walkouts taking place across the country in response to the recent shooting that claimed the lives of 17 students and staff in a Parkland, Floriada school.
The History teacher discussed the purpose of the walkout and questioned whether students would be supported if they wanted to walk out in protest of other serious issues, using the example of legal abortion.
Having 120 students total, the Ms. Benzel was put on leave based on the complaint of two students and one parent.
The student walkout that was intended to remember the 17 students who lost their lives. Unfortunately, for the most part, the day known by the hashtag #NationalWalkOut Day turned into a media manipulation of struggling students to push anti-gun legislation.
