Spectator Plans For Princeton High School
Updated (Feb. 7, 2022)
Several factors have an impact on spectator capacity this season. Primarily, the size of the venue and the ability to encourage social distancing have guided the decisions made by the Princeton Public School Athletic Health and Safety Committee. Previously, we have placed an emphasis on allowing only family members of student-athletes to attend games. However, at this time the PPS Athletic Health and Safety Committee has approved limited student attendance at remaining Princeton High School home games for the 2021-2022 winter season. At this time, we ask that you CLICK HERE to visit the New Jersey Covid-19 Activity Level Index (CALI) report to view the transmission rate in our surrounding areas before deciding to attend our indoor athletic events.
