Update from Athletic Director on Winter and Spring Sports Programming

Dear Pioneer Families, 

Due to the state-wide Tier 3 Resurgence Mitigations that started on Friday, November 20th, all SFDS athletic activities were put on pause for Thanksgiving week. As we get back into the swing of things with school, the athletic department is searching for new ways to keep students active. We want to fulfill our stated goal of keeping students physically active and socially engaged with teammates/classmates through collaborative team activity. Tier 3 mitigations for school athletic departments allow for the following: One-on-one indoor student/coach training for in-season athletes (only one coach and one athlete in a gym at a time), Outdoor training for 9 students and one coach (a group of 10), Any virtual meetings/training. 

As the cliché goes, “there is no playbook” for what we are trying to navigate at this time. We are all doing our best to get through. We will continue to do our best to keep you informed with updates as they are made available to us. 

Be Safe! Be Well! 

Mrs. Arlene Ramos, Director of Athletics
