1. Seek immediate medical care and testing if flu-like symptoms are present in your child or other family members.

2. If diagnosed with Coronavirus (COVID-19), notify us immediately, as we are required to notify the public health authorities, and keep all children at home until cleared by a doctor to return to participation and/or completion of quarantine

3. Use sanitizing solution 

4. Frequently wash your hands thoroughly with warm, soapy water, and encourage your child to do the same prior to class, at breaks, after using the restroom and after class.
