COVID POLICIES AS OF JANUARY 3, 2022

Updated 12/30/2021

There are currently no travel restrictions for non-Vermonters wishing to participate at NECCA. However, we do have guidelines our students must follow.

  • For the week of January 3, all of our students, staff and parents/guardians must show a negative COVID test before entering the building.
  • Double Masking or KN95 / N95 is mandatory. You must wear a surgical paper mask under a cloth mask or a KN95 or N95 mask (based on best fit).
  • Return of 6’ social distancing. This will change entry/exit flow to the space, including all exits through the side door of the Trapezium.
  • No indoor eating or drinking.
  • No partnering and limited hand spotting for the week of Jan 3-7.
    • After Jan 9, all partner class participants will be required to either weekly test or provide proof of booster to continue.
  • For the week of January 3, Trapezium flow will require checkpoint entry at the front to show proof of negative test, with exit out the side door.
    • Cotton Mill check in will be at the Little Mill for everyone; please maintain 6’ ft distance.
  • If you exhibit 1 symptom, please stay home. For more details check here.

Starting February 7, NECCA will require proof of vaccination. Starting February 28, we will require proof of completed vaccination and booster, if eligible. If you have a medical or religious exemption, you may fill out forms provided on our website at a later date and we will notify you for approval.
