Schools Closed for Rest of School Year
Ohio Governor DeWine announced the closure of all schools through the end of the school year. Remote learning will continue. The last day of remote learning for preschool through 11th grade students will be May 28. We know the Governor’s order to close schools for an even longer period of time presents a challenge for our families. Although our buildings will remain closed, learning will continue. Our teachers will continue to communicate with students. Superintendent Nancy House expresses her sincere appreciation to all of our Milford families and all of our teachers and staff for their diligent, hard work since we initially closed our school buildings last month. We appreciate everyone's flexibility during this time.
