In Michigan, students at Oxford High School, where a school shooting occurred in November, staged a walkout at 12 p.m. on Thursday. Four students were killed in the shooting.
Emma Janoff, an 11th grader at Schreiber and a member of 'Students Demand Action', a national organization against gun violence, says she got active on gun control policy and school safety following the 2018 Parkland High School shooting. The 17 year-old says her school's administration was in support of the walkout and she hopes the over 200 planned demonstrations across the country send a clear message that students are a"united front."
