West Chester Area School District is temporarily adjusting their indoor sporting event guidance for spectators beginning on January 3rd until further notice.
The only spectators that will be admitted into the contests (basketball and wrestling) at all the secondary schools (WC East, Henderson, Rustin High Schools and Fugett, Pierce, Stetson Middle Schools) will be the home and visitor players' immediate family members (parents, guardians and siblings)
The WCASD will not be allowing student sections at all during this time.
Spectators are required to wear masks properly and socially distance while attending these contests.
Parents and students should make sure they are signed up to the Fugett Sports Remind. All important changes or cancellations will be posted in Remind. Use this link for instructions:
Attention Drama Club Families

Please help us spread the word and invite our community members to join us by sharing this registration link with your families:
REGISTRATION FOR COMMUNITY CONVERSATIONS
