Let's look at this paragraph above a little closer. Mr. Greenwald goes to the high school to talk to the students in person. He explains all of the reasons everyone should vote to pass this referendum on election day. Then he informs all the students that every student that is registered to vote will receive a field trip status one day during early voting, allowing them leave school and vote without being counted as absent.
However, using the rationale that you used on another post, that families often vote alike, if these kids come from households who will vote no, Greenwald has taken a risk of sending "no" votes to the polls. I just hope these current eighteen year olds do a better job at turning out at the polls than the last generation did. People need to vote if they want change.
