High School Activities Handbook for Coaches, Sponsors, Students and Parents/Guardians

FNSBSD will strive to continue our activities to the fullest extent practical and intend to take responsible measures to promote the safety of all participants, coaches, staff, and supporting families. The district is using Alaska School Activities Association (ASAA) event and practice protocols to guide fall activities.

COVID-19 

In Spring 2020 the Center for Disease Control and Prevention declared COVID19 as a Worldwide Pandemic.  The state of Alaska responded with multiple mandates and community guidance to maintain the health and reduce the risks for all Alaskans.  In addition, ASAA provided School Districts guidance specific to student activities.  Below is the Mitigation Plan developed by the Fairbanks North Star Borough School District in response to the guidance provided.  

Anyone who is displaying symptoms of the disease may not participate in any activities and must maintain social distancing.
