Liberal government schools...

Thanks to Boortz for this gem.

NBC TV 4 in Los Angeles reports:

More than 800 Los Angeles Unified students walked out of their high schools Wednesday as part of a nationwide protest against the administration.

Adults accompanied groups of students "in all cases" as they left from 10 high schools -- Los Angeles High, Van Nuys High, Downtown Business Magnet, Francisco Bravo Medical Magnet, Marshall High, Hamilton High, Fairfax High, Orthopaedic Hospital Medical Magnet, Lincoln High and Belmont High, said Dan Isaacs, the district's chief operating officer.

"Our issue... was safety, and I think we fulfilled our mission, frankly," Isaacs said.

The groups varied in size from 10 to 250, he said. The district sent staff, school police and youth relations personnel to walk with the teenagers and made buses available to take the students back to school when they got tired.

Some students may have splintered off from their groups, but Isaacs said he expected the majority either returned to campus or went home for the day, which was relatively free of incidents.
