This is an important message from Page County Public Schools:
Page County Public Schools will alter winter sports tryouts. Tryouts will be postponed for the next two weeks and the situation will be evaluated at that time for our next decision. Winter sports teams will continue with out-of-season workouts under the VHSL Phase III Guidelines during this two week period. Winter sports athletes should talk to their coach to confirm your workout time. Winter sports are Boys' and Girls' Basketball, Sideline Cheer, Wrestling and Indoor Track. All fall and spring sports will still honor the two week dead period. Therefore, no fall or spring sports will be practicing during this time. The current situation is very fluid and we will continue to update everyone as decisions are made for our school division and the Bull Run District. Thank you.
