Mask Mandate Modified and COVID Testing Prior to Rehearsal
We are aware that the State has lifted the indoor mask mandate and so have schools. For the time being, NVYS will keep our mask mandate in place and will revisit this policy after our March 13 concert.
Thank you to everyone for testing prior to rehearsal and staying home if you had symptoms or tested positive. If you tested positive last week, we are asking you to provide a negative test result within 72 hours of our next rehearsal.
We are not making testing mandatory, but we require students and staff who are experiencing Covid symptoms to stay home and test prior to the next rehearsal.
Thank you so much for your commitment to NVYS and keeping our community safe and healthy.
