National School Walkout Day In honor of the #NationalSchoolWalkout on March 14, 2018, Secaucus Middle School and Secaucus High School took to the football field to create a message for the students and faculty at the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. An aerial photograph of students and staff standing side by side to form the word “HOPE” will be sent to Parkland, Florida, as a symbol of support. Superintendent of Schools, Jennifer Montesano said, “It is our wish that this picture will serve as a reminder that students in Secaucus, New Jersey are sending their love and hope that tragedies like this will never happen again.” #ENOUGH
