ALLENTOWN, Pa. (WPVI) — The Allentown School District canceled classes Monday for potential disruptions at the rally that could affect the safety of students and staff, officials said.

Kamala Harris is expected to campaign in the Philadelphia area Monday night, drawing large crowds and heavy traffic for her Get Out the Vote concert on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway.

School district leaders say they decided to cancel classes after consulting with the Allentown Police Department.

After-school activities and sports are also canceled, officials say.

Classes will resume on Wednesday, November 6.
