Flu fears are closing more mid-Michigan schools. 

Standish-Sterling Community Schools will be closed Monday, October 26, 2009,

Shepherd Public Schools will be closed Monday and Tuesday.

School leaders say just too many kids are calling in sick.  More than 100 schools across the state closed last week due to the problem.   

Under state rules, a school with more than 25 percent of its students off cannot count that as an official day.
