Hundreds of students from Nashua’s two high schools staged a walkout Wednesday holding signs and international flags demanding an end to what they called the ICE-inspired violence sweeping the country. The students marched to Stellos Stadium. On social media, the School Superintendent posted that the event is not school-sanctioned and is being organized independently by students. He said the district recognizes that students have First Amendment rights to express their views but noted that teachers and staff should not participate in student walkouts during instructional time. Police were nearby but no incidents were reported.
