Monday, students demanded changes to security protocols after last week's shooting inside Wilmer-Hutchins High School.
DALLAS — Monday was all about action for Wilmer-Hutchins High School students as they staged a walkout to protest gun violence and better school safety.
“Nobody wants to keep going through this, man. What do we have to do to make sure this doesn’t happen again?” asked another student. “They’re trying to make the excuse that we’re missing out on education. We missed out on education when we had a shooting,” said Zakerrah Tyeskie, a student. “It’s not the first time it’s happened. They bring knives, weed, they bring anything they can get in because they know nobody is going to check their bags,” said Justice Tyeskie. “I get what the principal is saying, ‘safety, safety.’ Now, y'all are worried about safety?”“They put all the blame on the teachers. It’s not their fault. They can’t do everything on their own,” said Marquinton Warner, a student.
