Time off to protest: US state to pass bill allowing students to take day off


When the US state of Virginia s largest school district began allowing students time off to protest in 2019, the backlash was swift and partisan: Conservative critics denounced Fairfax County Public Schools for coddling its too-liberal, too-sensitive youth and predicted kids would abuse the policy to play hooky.
But a year later, the Virginia General Assembly is poised to pass legislation that will take Fairfax s policy statewide, permitting more than 680,000 middle and high school students across 130-plus school systems one excused absence every year to engage in a civic event.
