The school board just announced that the winter sports season is back on. I am honestly stunned by this outcome and know that none of this would have happened if you had not lent your name to this effort. Please keep looking out for one another as the season finally …
On December 11, 2020, the Hull High School community was made aware that the Hull Board of Health and the Superintendent of Schools have cancelled all winter athletics for the 2020-2021 school year. We have been told this is because of a recent rise in cases and safety concerns due to COVID-19. As students in this community, we are told that we are able to enter school with about 100-150 kids with the safest protocols. Throughout the state, Hull included, youth sports and AAU continue to take place. Many students and teachers participate in these events, and then are able to come to school. Teachers, some that could be high risk, have children who play sports every weekend at many different venues. These same teachers are able to come to school. With less than 4 total positive cases within the students so far this year, it's fair to say we have taken every precaution necessary compared to many schools in the South Shore. I, Ben Olivieri, Class President of the Senior Class at Hull High School, have recently concluded a successful fall hockey season with students from Norwell. There was not a single positive case, nor was there any exposure of COVID-19 to the team. Both the boys soccer and girls soccer teams completed successful seasons without a single positive case, and both teams making it very far in the tournament. The Hull Youth Flag Football Program just concluded a successful season, with not a single case of COVID-19, and they were allowed to have any amount of fans. Many people depend on this season to get recruited for scholarships for college. Hull, being the smallest town in the South Shore, is the only town with a cancellation so far. What makes us different from schools with 500+ plus students? As of December 12, 2020, the Hull Youth Basketball Program began tryouts. There is no reason why younger kids, who have very little sense of taking precautions due to this disease, are allowed to play, but the Varsity programs cannot. For the high school hockey players in Hull, with there being less than 10 players in the entire school, combine with Cohasset. Taking away this opportunity from just a few people does not make any difference with fighting this disease. If we can't have sports, how are we able to go to school? The student athletes are exposed to far more people at school than at sporting events, especially since they aren't allowing spectators at these games. This is a decision that must be reversed. This decision will have a negative impact on the students and families of the Hull Community that will affect them for the rest of their lives. Please align this petition supporting the student -athletes of Hull High School.
Hull high is one of the most small schools and the rise in corona virus cases is the same in neighboring towns all who have approved winter sports why should our small school who’s building can support precautions in transmitting the virus.

I’m a senior, I’ve been described as vulnerable. I don’t consider myself vulnerable. I am not worried that a high school athlete playing a winter sport will threaten my health. I follow guidelines and stay safe. Let them have a chance to experience their childhood.

I understand not utilizing our school facilities but I am sure all the families are willing to pay a bit extra to rent court space at the U or similar venue. As far as hockey, we don't utilize the schools. If the State, MIAA and So Shore conference thinks it is safe then we should not penalize our young adults.

Let the kids play. Their mental well-being is being compromised for an unknown. Take proper precautions to let the kids participate in sports. It’s a proven fact that sports and physical activities improve wellness and boost immune systems.

I am in total agreement. Our kids will now play club which puts them in contact with kids from many more towns. This shut down of Hull alone does nothing but punish our kids in our small town. Unfair and not well thought out.

Mass hockey has put many new protective measures in place so that hockey can continue. I think that if the players and parents follow these guidelines the kids should be given the chance to play.
