Schools Close in Virginia after 300 Teachers Won’t Work for ‘A Day Without Women’ Protest Day
Over three hundred teachers said they planned not to work on “A Day Without Women,” a protest that grew out from the Women’s March on Washington. This from The College Fix:
The Alexandria City Public Schools will be closed Wednesday, March 8 in observance of “A Day Without Women.”
The district made the announcement earlier today after it received notice of 300 teachersrequesting the day off, WJLA reports.
Instead, Wednesday will be designated a “teacher work day for ACPS staff.” This “work day” will be in addition to an already-scheduled such day on Friday.
