"Check with your District/BOE Clerk they should have the most recent rulings on the issue. (An update is actually on our agenda for our next meeting) If I remember correctly the Governor waived the signed (door to door) petition requirement last year."

"We are allowing sports with no spectators. We are living streaming as many games as we can with great success and many viewers. Our struggle has been getting opponents to keep their masks on. But so far so good."

"Our board met Monday night and approved High Risk sports.
I also agree that is is unfair to performing arts but we are truly at the Governors mercy."

"We had our meeting last week. We are only a K-8 district and a small comunity. Modified sports were the only discussion and resulted in a 4-3 split decision on sports but no high risk sports. This decision went against the Superintendents…"

"Our school board did not vote. Our Superintendent went with the advisement of the County health office and we are not allowing sports outside our school (we will do something internal with our own students). We were struggling with the idea of it…"

"In so far as cost, try to work with local doctors or medical centers. We contracted with a doctor and he is accepting health insurance and waiving co-pays. We have a set dollar amount of $85.00 per test for uninsured which is what the district…"

"We have been having 'out of season' workouts and practices as allowed by NYS and are getting prepared to start the high risk sports. It seems as if the requirements change daily. Our Athletics Director has been doing a great job of keeping abreast…"

"We are testing all the athletes before they start and then a percentage of them every week. We have had a number of our staff trained to administer the rapid tests and received them during the Orange Zone restrictions in our county. The…"

"We are testing and after our district dr approves the plan we will allow it...and may require weekly testing for wrestling. I felt more against it in the fall, but the longer they're home and can't go outside...if they can follow protocols it would…"

"We are struggling with this as well. We have offered non competitive practices in all sports in student cohorts. For the winter, we've allowed ski team and track competitions. But we are really split about competition for wrestling and basketball."

"I wish we could afford to test."

"We approved high risk sports and have contracted with a doctor to weekly test our athletes. In Nassau County most schools are doing the same and will not compete with you unless they are tested. We have had outside athletics occurring all year and…"

"We approved our plan at a special meeting this morning, including wrestling. I also agree about the disparity between athletics and performing arts."

"School administrators have shared that athletes are letting their grades slip because of the lack of sports. Some schools have required students participating in sports to be remote. Testing is key but your point on inequity with the Arts is spot…"

"We had long and divided discussions. The most important part was asking administration to create detailed requirements for participation in sports. The biggest part was one positive test on a team and they take a10 day break. A second positive,…"

"We are supportive of moving forward, sans wrestling, based on the additional concerns shared on that sports. With that said, your point on performing arts is spot-on and I have raised it with our administration. The state has barely paid attention…"
