Amid concerns over pay and recent problems with staffing for Durham Public Schools bus routes, a group representing Durham educators said many will attend protests and will not be at work Wednesday—and school district officials have canceled classes at 12 schools targeted by the group on Wednesday.

The Durham Association of Educators announced on Facebook Tuesday afternoon that workers from 11 schools had called out on Wednesday to attend protests by the Durham Association of Educators.

Wednesday morning, the district said Hillside High School was also impacted by the staffing challenges, bumping the number up to 12 schools closed.
