You probably know that today is the National School Walkout, a hotly-debated topic, as students across the country step out of class for 17 minutes to honor those who were lost in Parkland, FL, while also standing up for their own safety and well-being.
In some school districts, it is only a high school event. Other districts have extended it through middle school and even elementary school.
That's the case in the Wappingers Central School District in New York. That's where our intrepid cub reporter, Sean Adams, attends school.
I texted Sean on Monday to see if he would be walking out of class. His answer was short and to the point.
However, I'm not going to tell you what he said, for I want Sean to do whatever he chooses. He had his say, and I'm proud of him.
I hope that we never have to have this conversation again.
