PAB Guidelines for Healthy and Safe Operation of SPB
(Show-Hide Details)
The Pennsylvania Ballet (PAB) is committed to creating a safe and healthy training environment for our students, staff, and families. This has been, and continues to be, our priority since the closing of PAB in March related to SARS-CoV-2 health and safety management.
Pennsylvania Ballet has created a phased-in plan for our return to the studios with a hybrid training model which includes in-person lessons and remote training. The following information was developed through research in consultation with the Philadelphia Department of Public Health, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), state and local officials. These guidelines were developed in a joint effort with our colleagues from schools across the nation based on research in our particular field of operation.
SAFETY AND SANITATION
PAB is implementing the CDC recommendations for cleaning and disinfecting facilities. The following procedures will take place before opening the building and will continue daily once the buildings are open as part of routine safety and sanitation procedures:
• Facility will go through a thorough cleaning and disinfecting at the conclusion of each day in preparation for the next day. EPA-registered surface disinfectants which are approved for use against SARS-CoV-2 will be used.
• Sanitizing stations are installed throughout the building, including the entrance and studios.
• All studios will have anti-bacterial gym wipes.
• Ballet barres will be disinfected before class begins and after class ends.
• All high-touch surfaces and door handles will be wiped down by staff and faculty throughout the day (every 4 hours minimum) along with an enhanced regular cleaning schedule.
• Floors will be disinfected between each pod.
• Bathrooms will be cleaned and disinfected frequently.
• Masks will be required for all occupants of the building. (City of Philadelphia mandate.)
• Lobby, break area, dressing rooms, and lockers will be closed.
• Water fountain will be closed for common use. Students should bring water for the day. No-touch water bottle filling station is available for filling personal bottles. No cups will be provided.
• Six-feet physical distancing will be maintained throughout the day.
ARRIVAL PROCEDURES
Signage will be displayed at the entrance with regards to COVID-19, describing sanitation procedures, social-distancing guidelines and areas with limited or restricted access. In addition, everyone must adhere to the following:
• Students will be assigned staggered arrival and departure times. Students may arrive no earlier than 15 minutes prior to their scheduled lesson.
• Students MUST arrive wearing a mask and their dance attire under their street clothes. All dressing spaces are closed at this time.
• Only students will be allowed to enter the building. A staff member will greet the student upon arrival.
• Students and staff will be required to complete a daily health self-screening and record their answers on the PAB checklist prior to leaving their residence. Bring the completed checklist with you to be turned in upon arrival. Once at PAB's facility you will submit your self-screening form to a PAB staff member who will ask 2 additional questions prior to permitting entry:
o Do you have any COVID-19 related symptoms?
o Have you been in close contact with anyone who has been diagnosed with COVID-19 in the last 14 days
• The parent should not leave until the student has passed the screening. A green flag will be raised when your student has been admitted. A red flag will be raised if your student has not passed the screening and must return home.
• The decision to admit a student to the building rests solely with a PAB staff member.
• Students will be released from the building by a staff member at the end of the day. Students MUST be picked up within 15 minutes of the end of their lesson.
• Hand sanitizing stations will be utilized once students enter the building.
I've read the above and agree.
PAB Guidelines for Healthy and Safe Operation of SPB
(Show-Hide Details)
(Guidelines Part 2)
PROTOCOL FOR WHEN A STUDENT OR STAFF MEMBER HAS A COVID-LIKE ILLNESS
• If a student or staff member becomes symptomatic during the program they will be isolated in a specified area.
• The student's parents/caretakers will be advised immediately and arrange to pick up their student in order to leave the building as soon as possible for medical care. (In the case of a respiratory emergency PAB staff member will call 911.)
• The student or staff member will seek medical care on their own.
• All students and families will be notified via e-mail when a student or staff member has a COVID-like illness. All efforts will be taken to maintain the confidentiality of the individual with the suspected or confirmed case of COVID-19.
• When a student or staff member is affected and reports a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19, PAB will notify the Philadelphia Department of Public Health (PDPH) to assess the risk and determine the most up to date course of action.
• In accordance with PDPH guidance, Student/staff member who have a COVID-like illness will be allowed to return if:
o A clinician has evaluated the student/staff member and documented an alternative diagnosis and determined the student/staff member may return, OR
o At least 10 days since the onset of symptoms AND fever free off anti-fever medications for 1 day AND symptoms are improving.
• All students and/or staff who have come in 'close contact' with the individual affected (greater than 10 minutes of interaction less than 6 feet away) will not be allowed to return until they have completed a 14-day quarantine. 'Close contact' generally does not include brief interactions, such as walking past a person.
• Students and/or staff in the affected pod will NOT automatically be subject to quarantine unless they have come in "close contact" with the individual affected OR show symptoms.
If a COVID-19 case prompts temporary suspension of in-person lessons, SPB's virtual lessons will continue.
NOTES ON THE DECISION TO REQUIRE A MASK
PAB has deemed it mandatory for students to wear masks at all times whilst in the building, including during lessons. Recent studies designed specifically to determine the benefits of mask wearing for COVID- 19 have demonstrated that wearing a mask reduces transmission of the virus amongst the general public substantially. The students' ages place them in the lower risk category for illness, but they are more likely to be asymptomatic carriers.
PAB's decision is guided by CDC and PDPH recommendations and amplified by scientific research. We recognize that the risk of transmission is most significant from respiratory droplets, shared over time, in enclosed spaces. As you have read above, we are implementing many layers of risk mitigation. In our studios, our students will be physically distanced. Our HVAC system's exchange rate of fresh air in/out has been increased and equipped with MERV13 filters. The studios will be cleaned and disinfected between cohorts. However, we believe wearing a mask greatly reduces the risk of our students becoming asymptomatic carriers and bringing the virus back to your home and to those at risk in the general public. It reduces the risk of a student becoming symptomatic and creating a temporary shutdown of the program. It protects our faculty and staff who are in higher risk categories by age. It is the most responsible approach for our overall community at this time.
I've read the above and agree.
Covid Liability Waiver
(Show-Hide Details)
ASSUMPTION OF THE RISK AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY RELATING TO CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19
The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization. COVID-19 is extremely contagious and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact. As a result, federal, state, and local governments and federal and state health agencies recommend social distancing and have, in many locations, prohibited the congregation of groups of people.
The Pennsylvania Ballet (PAB) has created safety guidelines for the return to in-person training. The attached guidelines were developed through research in consultation with the Philadelphia Department of Public Health, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), state and local officials, as well as our own research in our particular field for operation, including in consultation with our colleagues from dance schools across the nation (the "PAB Guidelines for Healthy and Safe Operation of The School of Pennsylvania Ballet").
Pennsylvania Ballet has put into place these preventive measures to reduce the likelihood of spread of COVID-19. However, PAB cannot guarantee that you or your child (the "Student") will not be exposed to COVID-19 while on PAB's premises.
By reading the PAB Guidelines for Healthy and Safe Operation of The School of Pennsylvania Ballet and adhering to the practices outlined therein you understand the risk and contagious nature of COVID-19. By signing this release, you acknowledge the risk of COVID-19 transmission to you or your child by attending the School of Pennsylvania Ballet (the "SPB") or otherwise visiting PAB's premises. This exposure may result from the actions, omissions, or negligence of PAB and others, including but not limited to, faculty, staff, and other Students and their families. You further agree that you and your child will comply with all protective measures and protocols implemented by PAB and/or established by the CDC and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
READ CAREFULLY AS EXECUTION OF THIS FORM WILL WAIVE LEGAL RIGHTS:

I understand that PAB has implemented the enhanced safety and sanitation protocols (outlined in the PAB Guidelines for Healthy and Safe Operation of The School of Pennsylvania Ballet) in response to COVID-19. I further acknowledge and understand that, even in light of these procedures, there is still a risk that I or my child attending SPB may be exposed to and/or contract COVID-19 while on PAB's premises. I also acknowledge that due to their physical nature, dance programs may carry a greater risk than other activities of exposure to COVID-19. Even when all reasonable precautions are taken, there is an unavoidable risk of exposure to COVID-19.
I knowingly and voluntarily agree to assume all the risks of any COVID-19 exposure and accept sole responsibility of any infection (including but not limited to personal injury, disability, and death) or expense of any kind, that I or my child may experience or incur due my child's participation in the SPB program and/or use of PAB's facilities.
Student and his/her assignees, heirs, parents, guardians, and legal representatives hereby voluntarily release, forever discharge, and hold harmless PAB and each of their officers, trustees, employees, faculty, staff, students, agents, representatives, or groups affiliated therewith (collectively, the "Released Parties") from any liability, claims, or causes of action of whatever nature, arising from or related to exposure to COVID-19 for any reason whatsoever to the fullest extent permitted by law, including without limitation any liability, claims, or causes of action based on the actions, omissions, or negligence of the Released Parties.
I've read the above and agree.
