Standard practices for both classroom/virtual choral instruction and environment.

 

Note - Our intent as a department is to cover these procedures /practices separately from our traditional classroom procedure guidelines within the course expectation document. It will allow us the opportunity to demonstrate and elaborate on specific procedures that require additional explanation/training.

  2. Maintain appropriate social distancing at all times - 6’ minimum when not singing.  12’ minimum when singing.
