COVID-19 INFORMATION

We have always taken our responsibility seriously to provide a safe environment for our MEG families.  Although there is never any guarantee of complete safety anywhere we go, we want to assure you that we are striving to provide the cleanest, safest environment possible for our students, their families, and our staff.

Keeping our gym healthy involves the commitment of everyone.  We ask that YOU:

** Speak with your child/ren about how they can help promote healthy habits including hand washing, sneezing into their elbow, not touching their face.

** Keep your child/ren at home when they are sick - *We gladly offer make up classes* for illness-related absences! If your child is not sick but must quarantine due to exposure, we still offer make up classes!

** Avoid crowding into the bathrooms to wash hands; take turns and use the party room sink if necessary.  **Please note... with the increase in hand washing at the gym, keep in mind that we are using more soap and paper towels.  While we definitely want to encourage good hand hygiene, it would be greatly appreciated if everyone would be mindful about not wasting resources.  Please take only the amount of towels needed to thoroughly dry your hands.  We appreciate your cooperation!

** Watch class from the sidewalk area when the weather permits.

** Special note: please have your child BRING A WATER BOTTLE WITH HER OR HIS NAME ON IT; we are limiting use of the water fountain.  Cubbies are provided inside the gym area for water bottle storage so that students do not have to go into the lobby during class.  PLEASE DO NOT SEND ANYTHING EXCEPT WATER IN THE WATER BOTTLE!  Sports drinks and sodas make a sticky mess where there is a spill.

WE are following these protocols to help ensure a safe environment:

** Requiring staff to wash their hands between each class (this is not a new procedure).

** Providing hand sanitizer for easy access in multiple places throughout the gym.

** Maintaining a constant supply of hand soap and paper towels in bathrooms and the party room sink area.

If you have questions or concerns about our COVID-19 safety protocols, please contact Lisa at the gym at 276-644-3770 or stop by the front desk.  We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in these efforts.
