Students from Lapel Jr.-Sr. High School were among thousands nationwide who walked out of their classrooms Wednesday. The students observed silence for 17 minutes, one minute for every person who died at Stoneman Douglas High School. Students at Alexandria-Monroe Jr.-Sr. High School held an in-school silent protest.
Muncie Central High School was one of almost 3-thousand schools who participated in the National School Walkout. The 17-minute remembrance of the 17 victims of the school shooting in Parkland, Florida was followed by talks from Muncie police chief Joe Winkle and Delaware County Sheriff Ray Dudley.
