SAINT PAUL, Minn. — On Tuesday, students from all eight Saint Paul Public School high schools and some middle schools are planning a walkout to protest how the district is handling the latest COVID-19 outbreak.
At 1 p.m. the students are planning to walk out.
Before the walkout, a press conference was held at Highland Park Senior High School, where student organizers publicly released a list of demands they’ve drafted, which includes calling on SPPS to move to online learning for two weeks so the district can make plans for them to safely return to classrooms.
