South San Antonio High School students protest Trump’s immigration efforts with on-campus walkout
SUMMARY: Seventeen-year-old Juan Rodriguez, a senior at South San, organized a student walkout to protest the Trump administration’s immigration and deportation policies.

The school administration acknowledged the peaceful protest, respecting students’ rights to express their views. Demonstrators stood in solidarity with other schools, emphasizing unity among Latino communities. Despite the administration’s efforts to deport illegal immigrants, students vowed to continue protesting, aiming to influence those eligible to vote. Future demonstrations are already being planned to amplify their message. – Zorya Oats, Kat 12 News.

Texas has partnered with Friends of RGV Reef to develop artificial reefs, sinking over 70 million pounds of materials.
