We would like to reiterate that the health and safety of our students and employees is of paramount importance to Groove With Me, Inc. With this said, there a couple of points we would like to emphasize:
​
  1. Parents MUST  fill out our Health survey form at least 15 minutes before class.
    1. Here is the link to the survey form: Health Survey Form Link
  2. Given the weather, parents will be allowed to wait at the staircase but no parent is allowed to enter the studio. 
  3. Everyone must comply with all safety precautions. There will be no exceptions. 
  4. In order for the studio to remain a Covid free space, parents must answer the survey HONESTLY. 
  5. VERY IMPORTANT- No dancer should step foot into the studio for the following: 
    1. If they are exhibiting any form of sickness.
    2. If they have been outside of NY state. 
    3. If they have tested positive for Covid.
    4. If they have been in close contact with someone who has tested positive for Covid. 
  6. If any of the above apply to your child,  she may not return to the studio for 14 days or may return upon receiving a negative Covid test result.  
  7. Dancers must always be in appropriate dancewear prior to class. 
    1. For all classes: Spandex or fitness attire must be worn. 
    2. For Hip hop or street jazz: sneakers must be worn. 
  8. All absences and lateness must be communicated with the GWM staff prior to class. Failure to do so may result in limited enrollment in the future. For more information on Limited Enrollment refer to our website at www.groovewithme.org

Hello GWM Community, 

As we reopen for the fall, we would like to emphasize that our first and foremost commitment is to the health and safety of our students, faculty, staff, extended families, and community. Our ability to conduct in-person learning rests on our collective commitment to be diligent regarding all the new policies and procedures as well as personal health and hygiene.

The following comprehensive plan has been established to allow Groove With Me, Inc. to welcome our students, faculty, and staff back into the studios. This plan outlines how we can return to the studios while mitigating, to the best of our ability, the risk of transmission of the COVID-19 virus. These policies and protocols are based on guidance from the Center for Disease Control and the NY State Department of Health.

The health and safety of our students and employees is of paramount importance to Groove With Me, Inc. We are fully committed to continually updating and revising this plan as new information about the virus becomes available.

All families who wish to participate this fall must read our policies and precautions. Please click the link below to learn more.

  • Los horarios de clases pueden modificarse para los tiempos de transición y para limitar el número de personas en el edificio.

DEJAR Y RECOGER:
  • No se permitirá a los padres subir las escaleras. Para limitar el número de personas en el edificio, solo las estudiantes, el personal y los maestros podrán entrar al estudio.
  • Todos los padres dejarán a sus hijas con un miembro del personal de GWM en el primer piso o en las escaleras.
  • La temperatura de las niñas se tomará antes de entrar.
  • Un empleado de GWM los llevará arriba. Los padres seguirán el mismo protocolo al final de la clase. Un empleado de GWM llevará a las niñas al vestíbulo o por las escaleras. Por favor llegue a tiempo ya que somos un personal pequeño y necesitamos despedir a cada niña de una a una.

  • El personal asignará a cada bailarina su "Parking Spot" (lugar de estacionamiento) en el estudio para sus pertenencias y "Dancing Spot" (lugar de baile).
