Dear PNB School
Families,
We hope you’ve heard
that Seattle Public Schools (SPS) is closing all locations for a minimum of 14-days, effective Thursday
March 12, and Bellevue Public Schools (BPS) is closing all locations through March 27th effective Friday March 13. Our policy is to follow the SPS district closures for the Phelps
Center and Bellevue Public School district closures for the Francia Russell
Center. Due to this policy all classes at the Phelps Center will be cancelled for a minimum of 14 days,
effective Thursday March 12 and all classes at the Francia Russell Center will be cancelled through Saturday March 28 effective on Friday March 13. Your understanding and continued commitment to PNB has been much appreciated as
we continue to navigate the impact of COVID-19 outbreak on your student’s ballet
training and our operations.
Please follow this link
for the message from Seattle Public Schools: https://www.seattleschools.org/emergency_center/urgent_message
Please follow this link for the message from Bellevue Public Schools: https://bsd405.org/corona-virus-covid-19/
We
have been and are continuing to minimize visitors in our buildings as a health
precaution for our staff and students and due to this and the lack of rehearsal
time we will be cancelling the Seattle and Bellevue Petite Finale performances.
More information about this will be sent out separately to our Creative
Movement and Pre-Ballet families.
Any
remaining student conferences for the 2019-2020 school year are cancelled.
As you can imagine, our
staff is very busy answering questions. We appreciate your patience.
We
appreciate your understanding and wish you all good health.
