There, school administrators said class schedules would continue as usual, but they respected the young students' right to protest, according to The Des Moines Register.
"Our students have the right to be heard," Phil Roeder, a spokesperson for the school district, said in a statement. "The majority of students at Des Moines Public Schools are students of color … The rhetoric of this past election has caused many concerns and divisions among them, their friends and their families. The school district will not stand in the way of our students peacefully expressing their concerns."
