COVID-19 Disclaimer and Liability Release
(MUST BE SIGNED IN ORDER TO ENROLL)
Genia Johnson Dance Company, Inc has taken all precautionary measures to prevent the spread of the virus including, but not limited to, lobby and halls to remain closed to the public, students will enter and exit through separate studio doors, hourly sanitizing of common studio/dance areas, bathrooms and exit/entryways, temperature scans, hand sanitizer throughout the business, staff and teachers wearing masks, social distancing of 6-10 ft at minimum, and more. Customers are responsible for abiding by any rules or guidelines the business has put in place for everyone's protection such as adhering to social distancing while entering and exiting the building and on the premises, wearing your mask, washing hands and using hand sanitizer throughout your visit and not entering the building if you have/think you have had any COVID-19 symptoms, including but not limited to a fever, or think you may have come in contact with anyone who may be positive for COVID-19. These measures do not guarantee a person will not contract the virus while on business premises and by signing below, customers understand that they are entering at their own risk.
I understand that I have an extended contract drop date of November 1, 2020 to terminate the 2020-2021 season contract in writing. After this time, I understand that I am bound to the season contract and know Genia Johnson Dance Company, Inc will make every effort to be open safely for the season as long as state laws and guidelines allow. In the event that the state regresses in Phases due to COVID-19, and the studio is forced to close, I understand that classes will resume virtually and the season will continue this way until we can have all students safely back in our studio home. All efforts will be made to continue our year as "normal" as possible. Payment plans will continue automatically but will be decreased by 20% (9 month plan) for each month we have to be closed.
I also understand that my initial payment holds my child's spot in the class and is non-refundable. I know that if I chose a 10 week session option that a costume is not included and I must alert the front office if I wish to add the season extension to the class including a costume etc. onto my account. Otherwise, students who are potentially on a waitlist for that particular class may be able to move into my child's spot.
I will not send my child to class when they are sick/fever or if they have come in contact with someone who may have symptoms/are positive with COVID 19.
