In-person ASAs will be able to start up this Monday, February 22. These activities include:
- MS & HS Boys & Girls Volleyball

Online ASAs will continue, using the same Zoom links that they have been using for the past two or three weeks. Students will be notified directly if an instructor chooses to move his/her ASA onto campus.

Please note masks need to be worn in all public areas of the school, except while in the water. This includes while using the outdoor facilities for small group games and activities. We also ask that you make every attempt to practice social distancing. Please always enter through the front steps area as this entrance is outfitted with a thermal camera to check temperatures.

The indoor gym is not available at this time.
