The health and safety of our teachers, staff and students is extremely important to us. Due to the high transmission rate of the current Delta variant of COVID-19, we are instituting the following mandatory policies for in-person classes
- All students/teachers/staff must be fully vaccinated (Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson) against Covid-19 to attend in-person classes, with a final vaccination dose no later than September 13, 2021. If you are not vaccinated, you are welcome to register for an online class. To transfer your registration to an online class, please contact us at [email protected].
- Students must show proof of Covid-19 vaccination (physical vaccination card and/or NY State approved apps: Excelsior) on the first day of class. If students cannot provide proof of vaccination on the first day, students will not be admitted to the class. No refunds or credits will be issued in this event
- Students must agree to having their temperature taken at the start of each class. If a student has a temperature of over 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit, the student will not be permitted to attend class. No refunds or credits will be issued in this event.
- Students/teachers/staff must agree to submit a health screen questionnaire prior to each class session. More information will be made available about this prior to the start of class.
- Students must sign an assumption of risk/waiver of liability form. A form for students to sign will be provided on the first day of class.
- Students/teachers/staff must agree to wearing masks. All are required to wear a mask while in the studios and in common areas (lobby, elevator, bathroom). During scene work, students can choose to remove masks while performing if they want. Teachers may choose to remove their masks while giving feedback.
