We are committed to keeping you safe.
During these unprecedented times, YMI is taking steps to ensure that students are safe from COVID-19. We ask that all students stay home when they feel ill or are placed in healthy quarantine in school, and email execdir@youthmusicillinois to notify us of that absence. Our absence policy is forgiving this year, and students are welcome to join via Zoom if they feel uncomfortable participating in person (email ExecDir@YouthMusicIllinois.org to arrange these accommodations).
All students and adults are to remain masked at all times inside the building, with masks covering their nose and mouth. Winds/Brass students may pull down their mask to accommodate a mouthpiece, but should immediately pull it back up when not playing. Students will be seated with at least three feet of distance between them and are asked to maintain that distance when not in their seats.
These mitigations will remain in effect until public health experts inform us otherwise. As always, we thank you for your commitment to the health and safety of the orchestras, and your continued support of YMI.
