Recent and Upcoming Events
There will be new policies for sports because of the recent spike in Covid cases. Students are required to wear masks at all times inside, including the weight room. Students should make sure to sanitize or wash their hands after handling all equipment. In addition, if students have any symptoms of covid, Coaches are to excuse these students from practice. Update will be coming soon if further change is to occur.
