Fairborn City Schools will extend remote learning through Friday due to increased numbers of staff and students with COVID-19, the district announced Monday night.

The district, which was closed for the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday, was learning remotely Thursday and Friday last week and had expected to return in-person for Tuesday.

“We understand this presents challenges to our families in terms of planning, childcare, and more. We made this extremely difficult decision with the safety, health, and welfare of our students in mind,” the district stated in a letter posted on social media.
