Fanning the Flames: Voices of the People

Thirteen students were suspended from Design Tech High School (d.tech) in Redwood City, California. These students, along with many others, protested the school’s new policies on Aug. 24, prompting allegations of disruptive behavior and the harassment of a staff member.

Eleven of the 13 have subsequently transferred to various high schools across the Bay Area.

During the lunchtime protest, a large crowd paraded signs and chanted in disapproval of the d.tech administration and its new policies.
