Protest in San Diego Against Weapons Training in Schools

From the San Diego Coalition for Peace and Justice

San Diego students, teachers, parents and others protested on Feb. 12, 2008, at the city school board meeting. They asked the school board to have a full hearing on their proposal to:

1. Ban JROTC weapons training.
2. Stop the involuntary placement of students in military science classes.
3. Require that students and parents be told that military science is not a college-prep course and does not count toward college admissions.
