FOR A FUN & SAFE SUMMER CAMP EXPERIENCE<br />
COVID-19 Safety Protocol<br />
Safety has always been a top priority at <strong>SummerPrep</strong>,<br />
and it is even more so during <strong>SummerPrep</strong> <strong>2021</strong>.<br />
<strong>SummerPrep</strong> will follow all COVID-19 safety procedures,<br />
including social distancing, frequent sanitizing, and<br />
wearing masks at all times (except when eating lunch<br />
outside with socially distanced spacing).<br />
In order to adhere to all COVID-19 safety precautions, all<br />
<strong>SummerPrep</strong> classes will be at 25% capacity to maintain<br />
the safest environment possible. In general, that means<br />
each class will have 10 or fewer students.<br />
<strong>SummerPrep</strong> staff will continue to monitor the evolving<br />
safety guidelines and adapt appropriately to provide<br />
a safe and enriching experience for all <strong>SummerPrep</strong><br />
campers. This may mean a change in class offerings.<br />
Families will be notified of any updates before the<br />
<strong>SummerPrep</strong> session begins.<br />
More information about specific COVID-19 safety<br />
procedures will be sent to families before the start of<br />
<strong>SummerPrep</strong>.<br />
Registering for Classes by<br />
Grade Level<br />
Classes are scheduled based on the grade level that a<br />
student will be entering in the fall. For example, a class<br />
for Grades 5 - 8 is for students who will be in 5th - 8th<br />
grade in Fall <strong>2021</strong>.<br />
Lunch and Snacks<br />
If COVID-19 safety guidelines permit, lunch and snacks<br />
will be available for purchase during <strong>SummerPrep</strong> from<br />
the Prep Café. More information about lunch and snacks<br />
will be sent to families before the start of <strong>SummerPrep</strong>.<br />
Students are welcome to bring their own lunch and<br />
snacks from home.<br />
Dismissal from <strong>SummerPrep</strong><br />
Students are expected to behave according to wellaccepted<br />
principles of behavior. <strong>SummerPrep</strong> has a<br />
zero tolerance policy when it comes to bullying. The<br />
<strong>SummerPrep</strong> Director reserves the right to dismiss<br />
any student at any time. Refunds will not be granted<br />
should a child be dismissed from <strong>SummerPrep</strong>.

In this brand new class, we will break down the world of<br />
theater, improv, characterization, dance, props, scenic<br />
painting, costumes, and so much more! Pick up the<br />
rules of improv through playful games like “Yes And”<br />
and “Word at a Time.” Create characters and make<br />
classic stories your own as we explore famous plays and<br />
musicals. Bring Broadway numbers to life, whether you’re<br />
new to dance or honing your existing skills. Study the<br />
science and art of lighting design and how it can make<br />
or break a powerful scene. See how a detailed stage<br />
backdrop transports an audience to a far away land and<br />
how props make the unbelievable believable. Experience<br />
all of this and more as you rotate through Theater Boot<br />
Camp “mini-classes” throughout the day. Join Sandia<br />
Prep’s very own Theater Teacher and Dance Instructor,<br />
Louis Giannini, and other local artists as they guide<br />
you through this fantastic, comprehensive theatrical<br />
