Striking East St. Louis teachers, from left, Jeff Schneider, Josh Cummins and Paul Thies, continue to walk the picket line in front of East St. Louis Senior High School Tuesday, Oct. 27, 2015 in East St. Louis, Ill. The strike began Oct. 1 after union members rejected a tentative deal between their representatives and the school district in East St. Louis, an impoverished black community of about 27,000 residents in southwestern Illinois that is across the Mississippi River from St. Louis. Some students and their families aren’t waiting for a resolution, instead opting to move or transfer to other districts. (Steve Nagy/Belleville News-Democrat, via AP)
