Our boys have a real chance to play every game this year. Comes at a loss as Waverly has already missed 2 preseason scrimmages this year. They were contact tracing any and everyone. The high school looked like a ghost town. Glad they jumped on board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyvol31 Posted August 17, 2021 Report Share Posted August 17, 2021 I think this is every parent/coaches fear right now. Not "if" contact tracing occurs, but "when" it happens. It truly makes me sad these kids literally cannot fully have any expectations for the season with this cloud hanging over their heads. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fryinpan66 Posted August 18, 2021 Report Share Posted August 18, 2021 (edited) Robertson County made some changes effective today. No more quarantining for contact tracing, especially if the kid has had the vaccine or isn’t showing any signs of Coronavirus. If you are sick, stay home. If you have COVID, you need to be released by Medical professional after you are well. Masks are not mandated, just recommended in larger crowds. That’s the way I understand it. Lets just hope that we can get through this football season without it having a major effect on football programs. Here is the message below: Good evening parents, This is Dr. Chris Causey, Director of Robertson County Schools. I want to thank you for your patience this year, as we have started a great school year amidst the rise in COVID-19 positive cases in our schools. We are aware of the number of students that have been quarantined due to contact tracing guidelines that have been recommended by the CDC and state and local health departments. The purpose of this phone call is to notify you of new guidelines that will go into effect beginning immediately. Masks or face shields are recommended for staff and students on the school bus, in the hallway, and other areas where students cannot socially distance. Although they are not required, masks have been shown to limit the spread of COVID-19 and continue to be recommended by local, state, and national health officials. Students and staff that have been exposed to a COVID positive person will be notified by the Health Dept. regarding quarantine guidelines. However, if your student is vaccinated or not showing symptoms of COVID-19, he/she will be allowed to attend class if they arrive at school. Students with symptoms of illness will be placed in the school clinic with a mask required and wait to be picked up. Students and staff testing positive for COVID-19 will only be allowed to return to school with a proper medical release. This guidance is also for those students and staff that are currently quarantined at this time, meaning that in the absence of symptoms, they may return to school, unless they have tested positive for COVID-19. We do apologize for the change in our current protocol but feel that too many healthy students are losing face to face instruction due to our current procedures.

I know we are not in 2A anymore and when the playoffs come around it’s time to strap up or shut up. To many factors for me to give a prediction for our season. Covid being the main reason. Waverly should have a great year but time will tell. Hoping I can down there to watch them next week. Unless Stewart county graduated their main players I’d say it will be between them Fairview and Waverly for the top spot in the region. Region 5 will be high seas. It's possible to get through it. Particularly with Pearl moving up. Beware though. There could be a signficant wave in front of you by November. World class talent in Nashville, TN.

Fryinpan66 Posted August 19, 2021 Report Share Posted August 19, 2021 Whose team is Winning tomorrow night? I think Heritage @ Allen County-Scottsville will be a good game. Both teams have the same mascot, Patriots. Allen County returns a 5th year Senior that plays WR. That’s right, I said 5th year. Lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
