Re: high school kids protest
[ QUOTE ]
But it's not just a walk/not walk issue. It's that they're not being allowed to graduate because they couldn't pass some standarized "did you actually [censored] learn anything" test. So if they're just saying "let my kid walk", they're basically protesting the test.
I realize the danger in these tests is that you don't want people teaching students just to past the tests, but I'd feel like you can design something that allows some way to determine quality of education across different levels.

theyre acknowledging they have failed the test and must receive a passing grade in order to graduate. they want to walk across the stage w/ their peers and acknowledge they will retake the test in the summer.
i think you are defining the word "protest" in your own way.
