A group for Woodrow Wilson High School students marched to the polls in Dallas this week to cast their ballots early.

What we know: The 18-year-old students had a drumline and cheerleader escort as they walked from their campus to the polling location at the Samuell Recreation Center after school on Wednesday.

It was part of an effort to encourage civic responsibility organized by the nonprofit March to the Polls and Woodrow Wilson's student-led Voter Empowerment Club.
