8-25-20 fdl school board moves all fall sports to spring

The Fond du Lac School Board has voted to move all fall sports to the spring.   Amid a surge in coronavirus cases in the last few weeks the school board voted unanimously at their meeting Monday night to move all fall sports to the alternative season in the spring.   Athletic director David Michalkiewicz says the hope is that there will be a reduction in COVID-19 cases at that time and the possibility a vaccine may available.   Interim superintendent Sharon Simon says while athletics is very important to students and parents, the school district must also consider their safety.   Michalkiewicz says the disadvantages include student/athletes needing to choose between activities,  lack of necessary facilities to appropriately run high contact sports, and a continued lack of normalcy.
