If you thought that the "One Fairfax" policy of viewing every decision through a racial and socio-economic lens might have been misguided, then get a load of this:
"Happy New Year, kids! Fairfax County Public Schools in Northern Virginia will enact a new policy on January 27, 2020, which allows school students to skip school to protest.
So it begins. Fairfax County Public Schools system is one of the nation’s largest with approximately 188,000 students. With close proximity to Washington, D.C., it doesn’t take much imagination to understand where the students will be protesting. It is being touted as the first school district in the nation to incorporate this policy. The policy allows students in seventh through 12th grades to have one excused absence each school year for “civic engagement activities”."

Who needs a high school education when you can be out of class protesting the Trump administration? It’s an easy thing to do when you’re not told by instructors that Trump’s policies have lowered unemployment to record low levels, while building up the economy to an all-time high.
And here lies the problem with the Democrat Party: they are filled with liars – point blank. There’s no reason whatsoever to badmouth what Trump has done for the nation, unless, of course, you’re a diehard liberal who refuses to keep up with the news.
Sorry, kids.

Please understand, this is simply an experiment. We may allow this for only a year or perhaps five years and then decide it's a bad policy. We'll know more once the results are in this November.

It's one excused absence to exercise your first amendment rights. Get over it.
