About 500 students at Franklin High School in the Highland Park section of Los Angeles leap over a fence as they storm off campus in support of striking teachers. Administrators had locked fences around the school in an effort to prevent the students from leaving. A noisy protest followed, and police were called in to break it up. About 390,000 of the Los Angeles school system's 594,000 students checked in to classes on Monday as administrators, staff and non-striking teachers attempted to keep the schools in operation.
