UPDATE:Ìý
School closures in the Marana School District will extend at least into Monday.Â
The decision, announced Friday, was based on the number of educators and staff participating in the statewide walkout.
"While the last thing we want to do is close our schools, the Marana school district cannot appropriately supervise students and ensure student safety," a district news release said. "The Marana Unified School District is committed to re-opening schools as soon as possible. At this time, it is unknown how long schools will be closed."
In the event that schools will be closed on Tuesday, April 30, the District will inform parents no later than 3 p.m. on Monday.
