Greater Cincinnati schools prepare for national walkout on Wednesday

Students across the country are planning to participate in a school walkout Wednesday morning to mark the one-month anniversary of the school shooting that killed 17 in Parkland, Florida.  About two dozen Tri-State schools have confirmed to WCPO that they'll allow students to participate in the national walkout, but there are likely numerous others. At La Salle High School, officials said students plan to instead pray during the national walkout.  "If something happens in a tragic way to someone else, we feel that pain and we pray for those people whether we know them or not," La Salle principal Aaron Marshall said.  The walkouts are scheduled to last 17 minutes — one minute for each of the 17 victims in the Florida shooting — starting at 10 a.m. The group organizing the walkouts is calling on lawmakers "to keep us safe and pass federal gun reform legislation that address the public health crisis of gun violence."
