    Return to Extracurriculars & Activities 2020-2021 Member Schools Harvard High School Johnsburg High School Marengo High School Richmond Burton High School Woodstock High School Woodstock North High School Summary Since the conclusion of the 2019-2020 school year, the Kishwaukee River Conference has been planning how to safely and responsibly return to extra curricular activities. The planning process itself has been a journey, one that has involved reviewing multiple sources of information in order to guide decision-making and help carve a path to the new school year. These sources of information include (but are not limited to) the following: ● Guidance released from the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) ● Guidance received from the Illinois Department of Health (IDPH) ● The State of Illinois’ five-phase reopening plan, Restore Illinois. ​ ​ ● The State of Illinois' All Sports Policy, All Sports Policy ​ ● Guidance released by the Illinois High School Association ● Guidance released by the National Federation of High Schools The main focus of the work was on generating ideas for day-to-day processes and protocols for students, staff, and the wider KRC community. These groups have been instrumental in bringing different considerations forward to the conference administrative team, which then incorporated those considerations into discussions regarding various scenarios for returning to activities in the fall and future seasons. After several weeks and countless hours of discussion regarding the various ways the KRC conduct and host activities in the fall, we as the KRC will compete in each respective fall sport and will monitor ability to participate in winter, spring and summer seasons.

LAMISE AL‐BASHA, ROCKFORD (KEITH) Lamise Al‐Basha’s basketball coach always use to remind her that “your mind is the strongest part of your body.” It took a while, but Lamise finally realized exactly what her coach meant, as her natural ability was often stifled by her own mental barriers. “I struggled with overcoming the mental toughness aspect of the game,” wrote Lamise in her application essay. “I was constantly doubting myself and played without confidence. Finally, I came to understand what my coach had been telling me. Your mind only knows what you tell it. It took time to fight through the mental barriers, but I am a better, stronger person for it.” A look at Lamise’s resume over the past four makes it hard to believe that there are any barriers that have managed to slow her down academically or in sports and activities.
