Who will qualify for free routine COVID screening every other week?

• Students and staff participating in Phase One on campus learning
• Athletes and coaches in a current sport

Testing will occur every other Friday from 12-3 by appointment only.

Invitations, directions, and links will be shared when it opens up for our specific school site.

Testing is to be used for screening participants who do not have any symptoms, not for sick participants. This is important and a way to support the Chieftain Community. We now know approximately 50% of people who have transmissible COVID do not have any symptoms. Feel free to email Nurse Sascha Lopez-Nusser with any questions: alopez-nusser@sandi.net

Good Morning Chieftains,

I wanted to share this graphic with you so that you had a visual of what we are going to be dealing with starting in the next couple of weeks.

The only Season 1 sports that are allowed to start on Feb 1st in a CIF capacity are Cross Country and Swim and Dive. The coaches names are Coach Pradel(XC) and Coach Carlon(S&D). Their emails are nepradel@gmail.com and stephaniecarlon@yahoo.com. If you have sport specific questions please direct them to the coaches.

Once the stay at home order has been lifted Field Hockey will be able to practice as a CIF team with social distancing, etc. and all sports in the Purple Tier will be able to hold competitions. Once we reach the Red Tier then Field Hockey can start playing competitions and when March 13th reaches us then Baseball, Girls Lacrosse and Softball will be able to start practicing as CIF teams and holding competitions(Once in Season 2). Once we are in the Red Tier then all Orange teams will be allowed to practice social distanced, etc.

I understand that this might be confusing for some so if you have any questions please reach out to me at anowak@sandi.net

As you can see looking at Season 2 Girls Golf starts 2/8 and Boy’s Golf, Co-ed Tennis and Track and Field start 2/15. These sports have been pushed forward for practices by CIF and they will be able to start practicing on those dates. Competitions for these sports will remain relatively stable moving into Season 2.

Again, if you have questions please reach out to either myself or the coaches.

Thanks everyone,

Alf
