After what happened with the Boys Basketball Tournament and with the UIL cancelling various academic state meets, I expect the UIL to make this statewide as early as tomorrow and at the latest sometime next week.

So you can go to school but you can not do extra activities. Like that is really going to help.

Oh, don't worry. School closings are not far behind.  Several schools are already delaying coming back from Spring break in order to prepare for "online classes."

What happened to being Texans?  

Remember the Alamo!

Remember Goliad!

Now it’s “self isolate”, and elbow-bump.  We cancel the Houston Rodeo?  I’m ashamed; I expect this in California and New York.  Sucks for all the seniors.

It will be interesting how the UIL will act given Governor Abbott's State Disaster Declaration a few minutes ago.

Some districts in the Greater Houston Area have yet to announce their decisions.  Maybe they were waiting on the Gov. announcement to proceed with their plans.

I was told they are making an announcement at 4pm.  I’m sure they will follow suit

With President Trump's address, I'd bet the house on it.

Are we still sending kids to school?

As I understand it, if the school district remains open, the kids are allowed to practice...Since district play is out, could schools still schedule non-district games and let these boys play ball during this time?
