your organization to <br />mitigate the spread <br />of COVID-19. <br />and community, Musical Empowerment has put forth the following <br />measures to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 in our program: <br />To participate in Musical Empowerment for the fall 2021 semester, all <br />mentors must submit proof of v accination. Mentors and students will <br />then be giv en the choice to continue with v irtual lessons or to return <br />to in-person lessons. <br />In-Person Lessons <br />Pairs that return for in-person lessons will be required to wear a mask <br />during the lessons. This applies to mentors, students, siblings, and <br />parents/guardians who are in the lesson room. Mentors and families <br />must always follow guidelines set by the lesson space and not stay <br />on the premise beyond their allotted lesson time. Sanitation wipes, <br />hand sanitizer, and extra masks will be prov ided for mentors and <br />families to use before and after lessons. <br />Ev en with these guidelines in place, there is a risk associated with <br />meeting in-person. Families and mentors will sign an updated <br />agreement stating that they understand this risk. <br />Virtual Lesson Options <br />In-person pairs are allowed to do v irtual lessons if needed. If pairs <br />expect doing at least half of lessons v irtually, they should remain <br />100% v irtual so space can be used for pairs able to meet more <br />regularly in-person. The v irtual lesson platform will be determined by <br />the mentor and student. <br />Cov id Symptoms or Positiv e Tests <br />If you are experiencing any cov id symptoms, cancel your lesson or <br />mov e it to a v irtual platform. <br />If you or someone in your household receiv es a positiv e cov id test, <br />please inform Musical Empowerment staff immediately v ia email <br />(aflors@musical-empowerment.org) or phone (440-665-7391) so that <br />we can inform others who may hav e been exposed. <br />You will not meet in-person for two weeks after the positiv e result or <br />until you receiv e a negativ e result, whichev er comes first. <br />If there is a substantial breakout of cov id that causes a local school <br />or the univ ersity to pause in-person operations, Musical <br />Empowerment will follow suit and pause in-person lessons until it is <br />safe to resume. <br />Additional Musical Empowerment Operations <br />Musical Empowerment leadership teams are expected to meet in <br />person weekly or bi-weekly with an option for v irtual attendance as <br />needed. Masks will be required during meetings. <br />Musical Empowerment chapters will host at least one opportunity for <br />in-person performance at the end of each semester.
