MASKING: CDPH recommends but does not require mask wearing indoors in schools. Students, staff and visitors may choose to wear a mask as they see fit. We kindly ask that you respect the right of others to wear or not wear a mask. We will continue to monitor updates from health officials and make adjustments to our mask policy as needed. As of March 11, 2022, the universal masking requirement for K-12 and Childcare settings terminated. A mask is recommended when covid positivity rate is extremely high in the Bay Area.

QUALITY INDOOR AIRFLOW: SFYBA will continue to keep the doors open while classes are in session for airflow. Both studios have fans to circulate air properly. Both studios have HEPPA air cleaners operating.

VACCINES: Vaccines benefit everyone in school and childcare programs, including staff and older students. It is one of the most important ways to help keep our community safe from COVID-19. SFYBA supports and encourages all eligible people to get up to date vaccines (6months and older), including boosters for ages 5+.

SANITIZE. SFYBA staff will continue to sanitize frequented surfaces daily (and sometimes in between classes). Dancers will sanitize hands as they enter the building for lessons.

POSITIVE CASES Stay home! SFYBA will do everything we can to offer appropriate make-up classes for COVID illness absence. Dancers may return to ballet If they test negative on day 6 days (since the symptoms presented) OR day 10 since symptoms first presented, no negative test needed.

SFYBA finds it prudent to continue to allow only dancers and staff into the studio. We realize this can be disappointing to many families who enjoy watching the classes. It can also be disappointing for the factuly since we love seeing the families in person too!

1. SFYBA will offer in studio viewing approximately every six weeks for parents. You will be notified by email when the next viewing date is approaching so you can plan. We only have room for 1-2 people per student, per viewing date.
2. SFYBA will make case by case accommodations for the occasional parent/guardian to remain in studio when necessary. Please email sfballet27@yahoo.com if you have a “situation” and we will do our very best to make every accommodation.
