2020-2021 UIL Calendar and Updated COVID-19 Risk Mitigation Guidelines
UIL activities for AISD have concluded for the 2020-2021 school year. The information below reflects the course(s) of action taken by AISD for extracurricular UIL activities and the preliminary schedule for those activities during the 2020-2021 school year.
UIL has presented modifications to the 2020-2021 UIL calendar and updated COVID-19 risk mitigation guidelines, set to take effect August 1, 2020.
The modifications to the 2020-2021 calendar differ by activity and conference and can be found on the UIL website (Opens in new window). These adjustments reflect the public health situation at this time and the varying numbers of COVID-19 cases across different geographic areas of the state. This plan provides a delay for schools in highly-populated metro areas, primarily conferences 5A-6A, given the challenges with COVID-19 those communities are facing, while providing schools in other areas, primarily 1A-4A, an opportunity to start seasons on schedule.
The information below is best viewed on a desktop or laptop computer.

Schools should be prepared for the possibility of interruptions in contest schedules. Our District Executive Committees will work and plan to accommodate, as best possible, for these interruptions.
Additionally, the COVID-19 risk mitigation guidelines for the 2020-2021 school year can be found at UIL Mitigation Guidelines (Opens in new window). This includes guidance around face coverings, general operations and protocol for individuals confirmed or exposed to COVID-19, congregate settings (band halls, locker rooms, etc.), practice and rehearsal activities, spectators and media, and concession stands and food service.
These guidelines are in addition to guidance issued by the Texas Education Agency (TEA) and intended to be implemented along with TEA guidance (Opens in new window), which applies to UIL academic activities and extracurricular non-UIL activities.
