Choral Program

buy Quetiapine money buy Choral Program Health and Safety Plan

NSM and the choral program are committed to the health and safety of our singers, their families, and our faculty. We will be following all guidelines put forth by the health department, the CDC, as well as the American Choral Directors Association (ACDA) and its collaborating partners. Here is our plan for in-person Choir Program rehearsals:

1. buy Lyrica All singers and faculty will be required to mask, no exceptions, as we know singing is a high exhalation and aerosol producing activity. (Singer’s masks will be provided to all choral program participants.)
2. buy modafinil in india Singers will be spaced 6 feet apart.
3. Windows and a door to the room will be open for air circulation and a HEPA air cleaner will also be used to help enhance the air exchange rate. 
4. Rehearsals will take place indoors. After 30 minutes of singing, the room will be cleared for a break to allow for air change and clear the air of accumulated aerosols. 
5. The room will be aired during the transition between choirs. 

As with all NSM activities, we ask that students stay home and contact director@newschoolofmusic.org if they are not feeling well, have tested positive, or have had an exposure to COVID-19. We use this information for contact tracing purposes and will make every effort to respect your privacy.

***NSM reserves the right to change these protocols based on local case rates, positive testing percentages, and public health recommendations. Any changes will be communicated to Choir Program families via email.***
