All K-12 schools in MI will close Monday for 3 weeks

"All K-12 schools in Michigan are closing for three weeks beginning Monday as the state makes big steps to slow the spread of coronavirus.

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer announced late Thursday that schools will be required to close from March 16 to April 5. Classes will be allowed to begin again on April 6 unless the situation changes.


"This is a necessary step to protect our kids, our families and our overall public health," Whitmer said.

While schools are allowed to have classes Friday, many in Mid-Michigan opted to close for the day and get an early start on the three-week shutdown."
