Today the MHSAA announced that the 2020 Fall football season will be postponed until the Spring of 2021. We have had numerous coaches and players working incredibly hard for the last two months preparing for the season. Their commitment to success, despite the obstacles they were facing, is what high school sports is all about! In regards to Junior High Football, all activities have been postponed until the Spring of 2021. Cross Country and Volleyball will continue as planned. A decision from the MHSAA on Volleyball contests will take place next week and we will communicate that information when it is received. For additional details on today's announcement, please see the link below. Our thoughts are with our players and coaches as they look to navigate this Fall without football.
