WAKEFIELD, Mich. -Students are back in the classroom in the Wakefield-Marinesco School District. Out of around 285 students in the district, only 45 students opted into virtual learning. Around two thirds of the students who are doing in-person education, arrived on the school bus. They had to wear their mask the entire time. They will also wear their mask while inside the school. Elementary students, on the other hand, are allowed to take their masks off while they are seated at their desks, as that age group will not be switching class rooms throughout the day. Ironwood was set to start yesterday, but due to ongoing elevator construction they have pushed that start date back to September 8. Watersmeet will begin school on September 14. Ontonagon also had their first day of school yesterday.
