We will be following the Updated Masking memo that MA DESE and MA DPH sent out on February 9, 2022. Basically vaccinated individuals have the option of whether or not to wear a mask. All unvaccinated or immunocompromised individuals will be strongly encouraged to wear a mask, and lastly, any individual coming out of 5 days of quarantine will be required to wear a mask based on the protocols.
We will encourage everyone to practice good hygiene and self monitoring of symptoms. Maintenance will make sure that all sanitizer stations, soaps, etc are fully stocked.
It is important to note that if we see an increase in COVID-19 cases or transmissions, we may reinstate a mask mandate.
If you have been exposed to someone with COVID –
- If you are vaccinated, you may come to class as long as you do not have any symptoms. You must monitor your symptoms, however, and if you have a runny nose, fever, cough, etc. then you need to stop coming to class and get tested for COVID, wait for test results, if positive you must stay home and quarantine for 5 days. At home tests are acceptable.
- If you are NOT vaccinated and do not have symptoms, then you need to get tested. At home tests are acceptable. If you test negative, you may return to class when you are feeling better, and continue to monitor your symptoms.
- If you are NOT vaccinated and HAVE symptoms, then you must stay home, quarantine and get tested. If you test positive, then you must stay home and quarantine for 5 days.
Thank you for adhering to our COVID policies so that we may continue to hold in-person classes and to keep our program safe for all.
If you choose not to test for COVID, then you must stay home and quarantine for 5 days.
