Natalia ISD shuts down camps

This letter was sent out on July 17th. Natalia is being proactive in shutting down sports camps to prevent spread after being notified that an athlete is positive for COVID. Every week officials remind us that it is SO IMPORTANT that people suffering from COVID notify your contacts so that they can take action before it is too late. By the time the information gets from the State Health Dpt to the County Health Dpt too much time has passed in many cases. Thank you to the family who notified Natalia staff so they could take appropriate action.
