Detroit, July 18 (RHC)-- In Detroit, Michigan, police arrested 11 people as they blocked school buses in a nonviolent protest demanding the cancellation of in-person classes during the pandemic. 
At least 600 children are attending summer classes at Detroit-area public schools, even as coronavirus infections have been rising in Michigan for the last three weeks.

In related news, in St. Louis, Missouri, contact tracers have linked the spread of the coronavirus to summer extracurricular programs, including football conditioning camps at two high schools. Despite the surge, Missouri high school football games are set to begin on August 28th.
