Ottawa Hills High School to be virtual this week due to number of COVID-positive, isolated staff

Principal Stephanie Davis says the number of COVID-positive and isolated faculty members is making the school short-staffed.

Classes will be virtual starting Thursday, November 4 through Wednesday, November 10. Staff and students can return to the building for in-person classes on Thursday, November 11.
