DOUGLAS COUNTY SCHOOL DISTRICT 

 High School & Middle School Athletics and Activities

2021-22 COVID Protocol and Guidelines

Effective starting December 8, 2021

ALL of our athletics and activities (indoors or outdoors) will follow the resolution that was approved by the DCSD Board of Education on 12/7/21. 

• As a result, effective immediately, DCSD’s mask requirement is no longer in effect. DCSD will honor personal and parent choice with regard to mask-wearing at school.
• All spectators, coaches, officials, and students will have the CHOICE on whether or not to wear a mask.
• No limit on number of spectators.
• No social distancing required.
• No screening required.
• Please know that these are for events that take place in Douglas County ONLY.  When we travel to another county for a contest or performance, we must follow the guidelines set forth in that county.  For example, if a basketball team has a game in Jefferson County, we must follow the guidelines set forth in Jefferson County.  
• Please communicate with your visiting opponent if they are from another county prior to the contest of the policy in Douglas County.

Process to follow when a student, coach, or sponsor tests positive for Covid

• Notify School Nurse
• Please note that exact quarantine guidance is still being developed.  It will not be automatic that we quarantine entire teams.  Each circumstance is unique and we will act accordingly.

Students, coaches, and sponsors MUST stay home if feeling ill.
