COVID Protocol:

We will take all necessary precautions to ensure that our buildings will be clean and sanitized upon your arrival. We would ask that your students and sponsors would wear masks inside the buildings. You may remove them during performances. I know many of you will find this
inconvenient, however, it is a small price to pay in order to provide our students with the opportunity to continue doing what they love.

When the last round of finals begins, we will close the tab room, so we can get to awards assembly quickly and efficiently.

Reminder:

Our school administration allows us to host this tournament.
Therefore, in order for us to continue to do so, please instruct your students to be respectful of our school and our classrooms. Also, Mounds is a tobacco-free and vape-free campus.
