COLUMBUS, Ohio - Gov. Mike DeWine announced Monday that all K-12 schools in Ohio will remain closed for the rest of the school year due to the coronavirus pandemic.

DeWine students will continue with remote learning through that time.

Back on March 12, DeWine put all schools on a three-week break but then extended that break until May 1 before Monday's announcement.

He said while Ohioans have flattened the curve but the virus remains and we have to think about the risk to teachers, students and our communities.

"To go back to school now with a relatively small amount of time left - many educators have expressed to me that this wouldn't be a good idea even if the health situation was resolved," he said.

DeWine added that no decision has been made about the fall at this time.
