Dear Trojan families -
Early this morning, OKCPS was made aware that a member of our coaching staff at Douglass High School has tested positive for COVID-19.
As always, there is nothing more important to OKCPS than the health and safety of our families and staff. Per CDC guidelines and in an abundance of caution, we have closed the Douglass summer athletics program for fourteen (14) days and are recommending that all football coaches and athletes self-quarantine. Further, the athletic facility will be thoroughly disinfected and cleaned.
OKCPS is working closely with public health officials to address the situation. And, while we must protect the privacy of the person involved, we believe it is best to communicate transparently with our families, staff and community so you can make well-informed decisions.
If your athlete begins to experience symptoms, please contact your medical provider immediately. For questions related to COVID-19, you can call the OCCHD hotline at (405) 425-4459. Please call 2-1-1 for other assistance.
Thank you for your understanding and support.

Estimadas familias de la Preparatoria Douglass,
Temprano esta mañana, OKCPS fue informado de que un miembro de nuestro cuerpo técnico en la Escuela Preparatoria Douglass ha dado positivo con COVID-19.
Como siempre, no hay nada más importante para OKCPS que la salud y la seguridad de nuestras familias y el personal. Según las pautas de los Centros de Control y Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC, en inglés) y con mucha precaución, hemos cerrado el programa de atletismo de verano de Douglass durante catorce (14) días y recomendamos que todos los entrenadores y atletas de fútbol realicen cuarentena. Además, las instalaciones deportivas serán completamente desinfectadas y limpiadas.
OKCPS está trabajando en estrecha colaboración con los funcionarios de salud pública para abordar la situación. Y, aunque debemos proteger la privacidad de la persona involucrada, creemos que es mejor comunicarse de manera transparente con nuestras familias, el personal y la comunidad para que pueda tomar decisiones bien informadas.
Si su atleta comienza a experimentar síntomas, comuníquese con su proveedor médico de inmediato. Para preguntas relacionadas con COVID-19, puede llamar a la línea directa de OCCHD al (405) 425-4459. Por favor llame al 2-1-1 para otro tipo de asistencia.
Gracias por su comprensión y apoyo.
