Pflugerville, Texas – Video filmed by X user Rod Mercado shows a student-led walkout and march at Hendrickson High School on February 2, 2026, with hundreds of students participating in a peaceful demonstration against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations.
The footage captures students exiting the school building, many with backpacks and some holding signs, including a large green one.
They walk along sidewalks beside the gray brick school structure, with the stadium and athletic fields visible in the background, moving in an organized line around the campus perimeter.
Scenes show students crossing roads and filing past the school, steadily progressing under partly cloudy skies in casual clothing, hoodies, and jackets.
The poster described the march as focused and respectful, emphasizing collective demonstration as part of the protest movement.
This local walkout is part of broader student-led protests in Texas and across the United States in late January and early February 2026 against ICE operations, sparked by recent high-profile incidents and aggressive federal immigration enforcement.
In Central Texas, walkouts occurred at multiple school districts, with students marching to justice centers or gathering for rallies.
The video provides an eyewitness view of this local demonstration, highlighting youth activism amid ongoing national debates on immigration policy.
