Health And Safety
Illness
- Please, do not come to the studio if you have a cough, fever, or are sick.
-
Students who test positive for COVID-19, Flu or RSV should not come to the studio while they are ill. They may return if they have had no fever for the previous 24 hours (without the use of fever reducing medication).
-
After returning from being ill, students are welcome to wear a mask to class if they would like.
- All students are welcome to wear a mask at any time during class.
Students
- Students must come dressed and ready for class. Clothing worn over dance clothes will be placed with street shoes in the student’s designated bin.
- Students cannot change clothing anywhere within the studio.
- Students should bring the absolute minimum inside the studio.
- Students with multiple classes in one day, that are not back-to-back, may request permission to stay in the homework room.
- Students in Hip Hop classes must bring a designated pair of shoes that are sanitized and not worn outside of class.
Inside the Studio
- Facemasks will be optional for dancers inside the dance studios. We will support anyone who chooses to wear one.
- The lobby / studio will be limited to students, faculty, and staff.
- Hand sanitizer will be available throughout the building.
Restroom
- If possible, students should use the restroom at home before coming to the studio.
- The restroom will be limited to students, faculty, and staff.
Cleaning
- All frequently touched surfaces will be cleaned often.
Drop-Off
- Students will be allowed to enter through the front lobby 5 minutes before their scheduled class time. Please make every effort to arrive on time.
- Students will change into their dance shoes and then be lined up by class. They will place their belongings in a bin which they will take with them into the classroom.
- One adult should accompany preschool dancers into the studio to help them get ready for class. Make sure your dancer uses the restroom before class.
Dismissal
- Students will be dismissed from the bottom of the ramp on the north side of the studio to promote one-way traffic flow through the building.
- Students will be escorted, and dismissed, individually by their class.
- Non-driving students will be released to a parent /guardian at the bottom of the ramp at the end of class time. Parents must get out of their cars to meet students; we do not want children walking across the parking lot unsupervised.
- Please be on time (or early) to pick up your student. It is crucial that we not have students waiting for parents because the staff member monitoring dismissal must leave to receive the next class.
Other Policies
- Payments and/or fees will not be prorated or refunded.
- Classes may be offered on Zoom if circumstances dictate that. Tuition remains the same.
- Everyone entering Alderwood Dance Spectrum must agree with, and follow, our Health and Safety Plan which may be updated at any time. If you have any questions, please call us at 425-771-2994 or email at [email protected]
