Many Metro Detroit students return to in-person learning under unique circumstances
DEARBORN HEIGHTS, Mich. While many schools in Metro Detroit will start their year after Labor Day, others kicked off the fall semester on Monday. For families who were given a choice between in-person and remote learning, Monday was a big day. Pardee Elementary School in Dearborn Heights is one of many schools welcoming students back Monday, but not before their coronavirus (COVID-19) screenings. The idea is to limit contact between students, just in case the virus sneaks its way into the school. Thats obviously much more difficult in high school, but block schedules have created smaller groups to try to limit the spread.
