School administrators around El Paso are discussing what to do about the hundreds of students who walked out of class Wednesday afternoon in opposition to proposed immigration reforms.

There were walk-outs at a number of campuses throughout the Ysleta and El Paso school districts.

A group of nearly 100 student protestors from Burges High School walked out of class Wednesday around 1 p.m.

Students made their way down Paisano Drive, walking and sometimes running.

Police were seen guiding students away from the busy thoroughfare as they shouted, "Mexico, Mexico" and held signs as well as a Mexican flag.

Some students admitted to KFOX they had only a vague understanding as to what the proposed immigration reforms meant.

"I'm not very sure but what I understand, it's about putting Mexicans, immigrants in the jail but it's not fair because they just come here to work," said Janet Del Valle, a student Burges High School.

"I just know they are trying to build a wall. I do understand about the reforms and all that that is going on, but still, I think that Mexicans should have a piece of the pie inside this country because we are a fundamental part of the United States," said Jose Gutierrez, a student at Burges High School.

Others students admitted they had no clue as to why they had even walked out of class.

"I don't have a good reason but I just do it. I'm Mexican," said David Chavez, a student at Jefferson High School.

The protest involving El Paso students ended peacefully.

A district spokeswoman told KFOX administrators were impressed with how smoothly the march went, however, the district now is discussing how it will deal with loss of instructional time and whether these students will be considered truant.
