COVID-19 is a moving target. New variants change the community’s approach on how to handle the ongoing pandemic. Refuge does not currently require masks, however, should mandates change; we plan to follow all local and state board of health mask-requirements for students and staff in attendance.
We do not require students to be fully vaccinated to attend, but we do STRONGLY RECOMMEND students get vaccinated if they are of the appropriate age and health to do so. Vaccines save lives.
If the local or state authorities were to limit the number of people in public settings, we plan to implement a maximum capacity that is appropriate to the size of the building.
We sanitize all high-touch surfaces before we open, once hourly during operating hours, and again at closing.
