Arlington, Texas - After the Texas Rangers clinched their first-ever World Series win, fans are eagerly anticipating a victory parade in Arlington. The excitement is catching on so much that Arlington and surrounding school districts have decided to cancel classes for the day to ensure that students and staff can attend the historic event.

The Arlington Independent School District (ISD) was the first to announce the closure, stating that "this is the first championship win for the Rangers in their history" and that they are "excited to celebrate with the team and the community." Students from different high schools in Arlington ISD will combine to form one band that will perform at the parade. The district also cited potential transportation issues due to the parade as a reason for the closure.

Other neighboring school districts, including Mansfield ISD and Grand Prairie ISD, have followed suit. Mansfield ISD stated that a large portion of the police force in Arlington, who partner with the district, will be called to support the Rangers' celebration. This, along with anticipated staffing shortages and potential transportation issues, influenced their decision to cancel classes.

With the cancellation of classes, students and families will have the opportunity to be a part of history as they celebrate the Texas Rangers' monumental achievement.
