As the Oklahoma teacher walkout approaches day four, Oklahoma school districts are still canceling classes.

Over the week, hundreds have closed – most on a day-by-day basis – but now more are announcing they will be closed the rest of the week.

Thousands of educators and education supporters have rallied at the Capitol this week for more funding.

Complete Coverage: School Shutdown

The walkout was held after 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.

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

Below is a list of school districts that have closed for Thursday, April 4, or beyond.
