The Oklahoma teacher walkout ended Thursday on its ninth day. Teachers applauded the passage of millions of dollars in new education funding, but they are also returning to their classrooms without the full raises or classroom funding they demanded.

Alicia Priest, president of the Oklahoma Education Association, described the walkout as a victory at a press conference on Thursday and said teachers had accomplished all they could from the walkout.
