PARENT RESPONSIBILITIES during RETURN TO PLAY:

  • Ensure your child is healthy and check your child’s temperature before activities with others.

  • Consider not carpooling or very limited carpooling.

  • Stay in car or adhere to social distance requirements, based on state and local health requirements
