Dayton, Huber Heights, and Middletown school districts are following the health department’s recommendation. In Kettering, the superintendent is urging the school board to delay the start of school until Sept. 8. Oakwood City Schools is delaying its start as well.

Trotwood’s decision to follow the recommendation means this football season won’t end with a fourth Division III state high school championship.
