Athletic Director and Varsity Football Coach Nelson Gifford congratulates the Palo Alto High School varsity football team for a victory during the 2019 season at Viking Stadium. Over the summer, some Palo Alto Unified School District campuses reopened for socially distanced summer conditioning and several athletic teams at Paly held practices for five weeks before the Santa Clara County prohibited athletics activities. As athletics and the county start to reopen again, Gifford said he believes that contact sports will be able to play if in-person instruction begins.
