The students, many from overcrowded classrooms, demanded better pay, smaller class sizes, and improved working conditions, chanting slogans and waving signs.
The Alberta Teachers’ Association and the provincial government continue negotiations, with the latter proposing to hire more teachers and build new schools to address overcrowding.
