Cypress athletic director Jeff Russell thought about what has been happening to Orange County high school sports due to the surge of coronavirus cases and described it as “the worst rescheduling nightmare ever.” The highly contagious omicron variant of COVID-19 has sent infections soaring throughout the state since early December, and the ripple effect has impacted high school sports by forcing games to be canceled and teams to follow health and safety protocols. |

Palo Alto sends SOS to parents: Volunteer to keep schools open |
Most school districts are discouraging parents from coming to school during the omicron surge to prevent schools from closing. Palo Alto Unified Superintendent Don Austin on Sunday sent out an all-points bulletin, pleading with them to volunteer in schools to keep them open. “We need your help to volunteer as never before,” he said in a video that was emailed to parents with a form they could fill out that would be sent to their children’s principals. “If you are able, please answer.” |
