Letter from TSD regarding Middle School Athletics
Dear Thompson School District Families:
We are reaching out today to provide you with information regarding TSD's middle school athletics schedule.
Following guidance released by the Colorado High School Activities Association (CHSAA), the State of Colorado and Larimer County officials, district staff members are developing plans regarding middle school athletic seasons during the second semester of the 2020-2021 school year. We will continue to work with the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) as we pursue our goal of providing a safe and healthy way to conduct indoor sports for our students.
The following statement from CDPHE provides information about what is utilized to make determinations about high school athletics. The same guidance will be followed for our middle schools:
“At this time, we do not have enough information about what disease incidence and hospitalization capacity will look like in January, and therefore are unable to make a determination regarding indoor high school athletics in Season B. Season B high school sports would operate based on the restrictions in the level of the dial in the county in which the school resides. For counties in Level Red, this means no indoor group sports are authorized.”
Based on this statement, we are delaying the start of athletics until further notice. When a new calendar is approved, it will be announced by HPS athletic director, Reid Bauersfeld, whom you may also contact if you have any questions.
Thank you very much for your continued support,
Kevin Clark
Director of Activities & Athletics
