REMINDER TO GMS / GHS PARENTS Regarding participation in UIL activities (sports, band) after COVID Diagnosis
Although a student may return to school after the appropriate conditions have been met for time of exclusion, UIL rules state “a student who has been diagnosed with COVID-19 must receive clearance from a physician, or a physician-approved delegate prior to returning to participation in UIL marching band or athletic activities.” A special form is available from your child’s coach or band director. It must be completed by a physician and returned to the coach or band director before participation (practice or play) can resume. The "COVID-19 Return To Play" form can also be found here: https://5il.co/zfhr
