CONIFER, Colo. (KDVR) — Hundreds of students at Conifer High School walked out of class Wednesday to show solidarity with Evergreen High School, just one week after the shooting.

"My mom is a teacher at Evergreen," said Evelyn Seevers, a senior at Conifer High School who organized the walk out on Wednesday. "She was there and it wasn’t connecting to me she was in danger."

Seevers said she decided to plan the walk out at her school when they realized students at Evergreen, since class was canceled for the week, had nowhere to protest. She said they invited students from Evergreen to join.

"It occurred to me my friends at Evergreen have nowhere to walk out, they aren’t in school and we wanted them to have a safe place to protest," Seevers said.
