KISD State of the District 2026

Official release 😞

I am writing to share a very tough decision regarding our athletic program.

Effective immediately, we are canceling the remainder of our varsity district football schedule due to a high number of injuries and a shortage of healthy players.

We know how much this impacts our school, coaches, players, and community, and we are truly sorry for the disruption this causes.

Canceling games that affect our district partners was not an easy choice, and we deeply regret putting those teams in this position.

Looking ahead, we have also decided not to field a varsity team for the 2027 season. Given our current roster numbers, we are afraid we would run into this exact same situation next fall.
We wanted to give other schools this notice now so their district has enough time to redraw the schedule and find replacement games without having to go through this uncertainty again.

While we cannot safely field a varsity team right now, we are doing everything we can to keep our healthy kids playing.

Here is how we plan to handle the rest of our schedule:
• Junior High: We will honor all of our remaining Junior High games as scheduled.
• JV & Sub-Varsity: For our remaining healthy high school players, we are actively looking to schedule games against JV teams or smaller private school programs so their season doesn't have to end early.

At the end of the day, this comes down to protecting the safety of our kids and doing what is best for the future of our program. Taking this step allows us to focus on rebuilding our numbers from the bottom up so we can return to varsity competition safely down the road.

Thank you for your patience and understanding with our school and community during a difficult time. Please reach out if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
--

Charger Nation,
Please take out few minutes to complete this survey. Although short, it will give us some good insight into our community's perception of our school. The window is open starting now until Friday Oct. 2nd.
