On this National Walkout Day, two California schools were unable to participate in the nationwide protest because they were on lockdown. National Walkout Day, of course, was a nationwide, 17-minute long student protest commemorating the 1-month anniversary of the Parkland, Florida school shooting and honoring the 17 who lost their lives that Valentine’s Day.

Righetti High School in Santa Maria was locked down after several students received an anonymous text threatening that there was “a weapon on campus.”

At San Leandro High School, police were investigating bathroom graffiti that threatened “I’m shooting the school tomorrow at 1.”

Both lockdowns have since lifted, though the danger these kids face surely hasn’t.
