Here's a list of school district plans for the teacher walkout.

Hundreds of school districts across the state closed Monday as thousands of teachers rallied at the state capitol for more education funding.

The Oklahoma State House and Senate passed a package of tax hikes to generate funds for teacher pay last week and Governor Mary Fallin signed the package.

Teachers said the new laws didn’t do enough to generate funds for students and the walkout continued.

Now, schools are making day-by-day decisions on whether they'll close for teachers to keep protesting. 

Here is a list of schools that have announced they will be closed Tuesday, April 3, 2018 and beyond.
