Several students at Stout Middle School expressed that they wanted to show support for the victims of the tragic events at Marjory Stoneman Douglas last month. On Wednesday, March 14th morning, The school’s principal, Mr. Oke, met with a group of students and they agreed upon a show of support that would be appropriate for Stout and middle school in general.
And so, at 10:00, Wednesday’s morning, students invited their classmates to join them in the hall for a 17-second moment of silence. All of our students, teachers, and staff quietly gathered in the hall outside their classrooms and listened to a brief statement and the names of the victims. It was followed by a 17-second moment of silence. Students, then, re-entered their classrooms.
Way to go kids! We are proud of you.
