Pleasant Valley fourth graders Connor Atkins, left, Makenna Laymon-Cutlip, and Cooper Kuneff work on their Language assignment on the first day back to class following the teachers strike Wednesday, March 7, 2018, in Pleasant Valley, W.Va. Students returned Wednesday to schools across West Virginia, a day after the state's teachers wangled a 5 percent pay increase from their elected leaders. Their victory came after walking off the job in all 55 counties of this poor Appalachian mountain state to protest some of the lowest pay for their profession in the country.
