While many students across the country planned coordinated walk outs for school safety, Tomahawk students and staff did just the opposite. They arranged for another of their 'walk-in' events. As in past years, they gathered at Pride Park before the school day. They then walked that final mile to the campus where they had a small reception. This year's theme was, of course, safe public schools. Previous themes have included school funding cuts. About three dozen students and staff participated this morning.

They announced yesterday that they have scheduled that make up day for next Friday. April 27th was originally scheduled as a staff development day; the staff will make up the day after the school year. They also noted any additional cancellations would require additional make-ups. The decisions were made at their school board meeting earlier this week.
