At approximately 10:50 am on September 20, 2019, about 150 students from Glenelg High School participated in the student lead Climate Strike, the nationwide movement. Students congregated in the stadium, while speeches were read regarding climate change. After the strike commenced at 11:22 am, students returned to their 4th-period classes or their lunch shifts. The walkout was peaceful and no incidents occurred. The administration and staff were there to ensure the students were safe and to serve with any crowd management.
