Description

A group of Burlington High School students spent the day protesting racism at the school and in their community by holding signs and speaking out in front of the school.  After school they met with Burlington Free Press reporter Molly Walsh and Editor Mike Townsend to discuss recent articles published about them and conversation in the community about achievement, test-scores and racism.  This meeting is to be followed by a second meeting of parents, administrators, students and reporters.
