Students around the country are planning to walk out of class for 17 minutes on Wednesday to honor the 17 people killed during the shooting at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. 

New York City's school chancellor Carmen Farina released guidelines and protocols for the walkout:

• Middle and high school students need parental consent if they want to walkout of class — and guardians should follow their school's regular attendance protocols
• Middle and high school students who walk out will get a notation on their attendance record that says they cut class, but won't face any other consequences as long as their guardians give consent
• If any students stay out longer than 17 minutes, it'll be considered an excused absence
• Those with special needs will need a guardian or qualified staff member to accompany them during the walkout
• Elementary school students who want to participate need to be signed out by their parents or guardians
• And staff members from each school will be outdoors to help ensure order and student safety

The walkout which is being called the “#ENOUGH National School Walkout” will be held around 10 am at various schools, one month after the Parkland shooting.
