PHOENIX, AZ – Low pay has teachers in Arizona seeing red. On Wednesday, they will also be wearing red and are urging others to join them.

The protest – Red for Ed – was inspired by the teacher's strike in West Virginia. One of the organizers, music teacher Noah Kervalis, says that the state's "teachers and schools deserve proper funding.

"If you are a teacher or school staff member, please join us and organize your local campus! If not, please join us in solidarity regardless!" He says that they've already confirmed participation at more than 20 schools across the state.
