The Studio Connection has resumed physical lessons as parents, teachers and students are comfortable coming in, observing the following changes to our operations:
- First and foremost, please do not come into the Studio if you are sick! It is possible a digital lesson could be done instead, with advance notice.
- Hand Sanitizer is provided at the desk. Students will be encouraged to use it or wash hands upon arrival.
- We will follow the Ohio Public Health Advisory System and government protocol regarding levels of public emergency. Masks should be used when entering and exiting the studio. Teachers will use masks throughout each lesson. We encourage the use of masks, but based on level of comfort for student/parent/teacher they may decide whether the student keeps it on during the lesson.
- Additional time may be scheduled in between students to sanitize piano keys and door handles.
- Use consideration when entering the narrow hallway and wait to allow one person at a time.
- Due to the space within our lobby area we have a limit of 3 chairs for waiting.
- All magazines and materials have been put away in the lobby for the time being.
- Please do not bring food or drink in with you.
- Limited use of restrooms preferred; for use in emergency situations (if used, desk manager will be on alert to clean).
- We will be using our largest rooms when possible. Safe distancing has been measured out in each studio room to accommodate the 6-foot distance guidelines.
- Lessons for voice, brass and woodwind instruments will continue to be conducted digitally due to the amount of air and moisture expelled while singing and playing.
