Students at a Defense Department-run high school on Ramstein Air Base in Germany say school has changed dramatically in the last month after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth launched a vast effort to stamp out diversity education across the military.
On Thursday, hundreds of students across three different high schools plan to stage a protest, in what they hope will be the largest walkout in the history of the Defense Department Education Activity, or DoDEA, in protest of the changes.
The DoDEA is a school system for children of U.S. military personnel and is comprised of schools from pre-K through 12th grade in the United States and around the globe.
