All Gogebic and Ontonagon Schools go to remote learning starting today.

GOGEBIC/ONTONAGON COUNTIES – The Western Upper Peninsula Health Department (WUPHD) is recommending that ALL Gogebic and Ontonagon County Schools pivot to remote instruction beginning Monday, October 26. Remote instruction will continue for a two-week period with in-person sessions resuming Monday, November 9. The move is necessary to help reduce the rate of COVID-19 spreading within the community. All co-curricular events, including practices, will be suspended during this period. Students and families can maintain access to food service through their local district. WUPHD points to a sustained increase in positive cases over the last three weeks as the major reason for asking the schools to make the temporary suspension of in-person classes.
