gun violence

At increasing rates, students attending school are losing their lives due to gun violence. The latest shooting was at Parkland High School in Florida where 17 students lost their lives. On March 14, 2018 students across the country walked out of class to protest gun violence. The front page news coverage of this event posted the words "enough is enough" which is the adopted phrase of those protesting gun violence. Pictures on every front page revealed kids of all ages protesting outside of their schools with signs and wearing orange to honor those who died at Parkland. These front page news articles really hit home because as a recent high school graduate and having a school in our district with a gun scare last year, the horror is all too terrifying and real.
