• We Encourage the use of masks when social distancing is difficult. Note: Masks should not be placed on children younger than 2 years old, anyone who has trouble breathing, anyone who is incapacitated or otherwise unable to remove the mask without assistance.

• We ask parents/guardians to take their child’s temperature before coming to the facility.

We encourage parents to be on the alert for signs of illness in their children and to keep them home when they are sick.

• If members/teachers are of age 65 or older, or with serious underlying health conditions, we encourage them to talk to their healthcare provider to assess their risk and to determine if they should stay home.

We hope that you will remain healthy and safe, and we thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
