Several West Michigan Schools Closed Leading Up to Thanksgiving Holiday
With COVID cases on the rise in West Michigan and inclement weather possible throughout the area at the beginning of the week, several West Michigan school districts have decided to close Monday, November 22, 2021, and Tuesday, November 23, 2021.
Some school districts made the decision early, while others piled on throughout the weekend. Some, such as Thornapple-Kellogg are closing due to “staff illnesses and the inability to secure an adequate number of substitutes.”
