Oxford High student walkout honors victims in Texas shooting

Oxford — Several hundred Oxford High School students walked out of class Thursday, gathering on the football field after leaving the building to honor students and teachers killed in Texas on Tuesday.

Footage posted on social media from other outlets shows the students standing in a "U" shape after filing from the school onto the field. The walkout lasted for about half an hour.

The walkout comes two days after a mass shooting at a Texas elementary school where 21, including 19 children, were killed.

Andrew Sholtz, a 16-year-old Oxford High sophomore, finished 4th hour and walked with others to a courtyard memorial for one of the Nov. 30 mass shooting victims at Oxford High, Tate Myre.
