KCKPS ATHLETIC & ACTIVITY MITIGATION

and SPECTATOR GUIDELINES

FALL 2021

Due to high community transmission rates of COVID-19 in and the low rate of vaccinated individuals in Wyandotte County, the Kansas City Kansas Public Schools will require masking indoors of all children and adults in grades PreK-12 and in all district facilities until further notice.

Spectators who have high risk conditions or who are around family members or other close contacts with high-risk conditions should consider not attending sporting events.

PARTICIPANT, SPECTATOR AND COMMUNITY SAFETY                                            

To mitigate risk factors associated with COVID-19 and protect the health of our students, staff and community, the following safety protocols will be in place during the fall sports season. To attend an event, students, staff and spectators will follow the guidelines listed below:

• KCKPS will follow the safety guidelines set forth in the KSHSAA 2021-22 COVID 19 Information
• KCKPS student athletes (including spirit groups and marching band) will follow the KSHSAA COVID-19 Return to Participation Guidelines. Students who test positive for COVID-19 must obtain clearance from a MD or DO, DC, PA-C or APRN.
• All those in attendance must be free of any COVID-19 Symptoms
• All spectators must wear a mask upon entry to any indoor event and must wear the mask for the duration of the activity. No mask, no admittance.
• Spectators will not be allowed near participant groups, or on fields/courts or inside fenced competition playing areas.
• At the end of each contest all must exit the facility expeditiously.
• Understand that guidelines are subject to change based upon Board of Education and local/state recommendation.
• We ask families to consider the safety of your child’s entire team by making decisions during the athletic season that limit exposure examples: large gatherings indoors, getting student athletes vaccinated, distancing and wearing a mask indoors outside your home.  Positive exposures on a team will require quarantines from school, practice and games. Student athletes that are fully vaccinated and not showing symptoms may continue attending school, practices and games
