Dozens of schools have announced they’ll be closing Wednesday for the nationwide “Day Without a Woman” strike on International Women’s Day. The entire public school system of Alexandria, Virginia, has announced it is closing, after 300 women requested the day off to participate in the strike. Some schools are also closing in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, and in New York City. The Day Without a Woman strike was called by the organizers of the Women’s March on Washington, the largest nationwide day of protest after an inauguration in U.S. history.
