In six weeks Huntington Park High School won't exist. Class of 2011 will be the last class to graduate from HPHS. I believe the reconstitution will affect many of the students and staff. The students from Huntington Park tried stopping this by walking-out on the day of the LAUSD meeting. Students walked approximately 10-13 miles to downtown where the meeting was being held. I believe the walkout was really irresponsible of all the students. The students and staff should of reacted in a different way. If they had decided to do a sit -in and the sit-in was planned they should have stuck to that. I don't have anything against the people that walked out but there was different ways to reacting to this situation that would of made us look better. By walking out, it made us look like rebellious irresponsible students. What was the point of 300 students walking-out if only 3 were allowed to go in the meeting, and those 3 students were only allowed to speak for three minutes. I like the fact that all the students are united, and we could have made a change but in a more peaceful, planed and smarter way.
