COVID-19 Updates & Safety Protocols

SAFETY PROTOCOLS FOR IN-PERSON LESSONS

The health and safety of our CMC community is of utmost importance to us. Here's what to expect for in-person lessons:

• all of our in-person teachers and administrators are fully vaccinated against COVID-19
• masks are required to be worn at all times by anyone entering the building
• self-assessment symptom screening is required prior to entering the building (simply read the questions listed on the sign in the mudroom and notify our admin if any of the answers are YES). Symptoms include fever, cough, difficulty breathing or shortness of breath, sore throat or trouble swallowing, decrease or loss of taste or smell, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea, extreme tiredness or sore muscles, headache, pink eye or lice
• hand sanitizing is required prior to entering the building and prior to your lesson
• distancing is required as much as possible
• air purifiers with a HEPA filter are in each of our studios 
• piano keys are sanitized in between each student
• parents are asked to drop off and pick up their kids instead of waiting at CMC, unless they are accompanying their child to their lesson or waiting for a sibling's lesson
• only our 1st floor washroom is available to students
• please take off your outdoor footwear; slippers are available for your use 

If a student is exhibiting symptoms but feels well enough for their lesson, there is the option to move an in-person lesson to online just for that week.

NOTE: We reserve the right to refuse entry to CMC without exception if a student arrives exhibiting any symptoms above, and the lesson will be forfeited.
