Students will complete the COVID daily symptom checklist (or preferrably hand in an completed checklist), receive a dollop of hand sanitizer and proceed to designated drop-off zones (students' will be able to bring in minimal personal items and designated a spot in either the front hallway at the entrance or the hallway near the bathroom in order to maintain a respectable distance). Students will proceed to a chair in the main rehearsal hall and await the beginning of rehearsal.
Hand Sanitizer

If a student or instructor or anyone in their household has any Covid-19 symptoms (fever, cough, chills, shortness of breath, sore throat and painful swallowing, stuffy or runny nose, loss of sense of smell, headache, muscle aches, fatigue, loss of appetite) the instructor/student must stay home. If an instructor or student becomes unwell during rehearsal, they will be removed and, where appropriate, a parent will be called immediately. If you have any covid-19 symptoms you must stay home until you are symptom-free for 3 days.
