Two of Michigan’s biggest school districts are taking a post-spring break break from in-person learning.

Dearborn schools have been operating in hybrid mode since last month, said Superintendent Glenn Maleyko. That means two cohorts of students go to school two days a week, on alternating days. Maleyko said that means individual students will only miss out on a couple days of in-person learning.
