Education Week: A sea of red-clad teachers took to the streets around North Carolina's legislative building in Raleigh this morning to fight for higher pay and more school funding.
About 40 school districts closed for the one-day walkout, affecting close to 1 million students. The organizers of the protest anticipated that more than 15,000 educators would attend today's "March for Students and Rally for Respect," which coincided with the state legislature's first day back in session. Most counts say that number was easily met.
