The choice of whether or not to send our kids back to school could be one of the hardest decisions that we, as parents, will ever have to make.  Some of our children, like many of us, are not thriving without the social interaction and emotional support of their peers.  As well, many students, especially the younger ones, are not successful in a self-directed distance learning environment.  We have to balance those considerations, plus the financial burden of keeping them at home, against the possible health risks to both them and to those we love.  It is not an easy decision!

At Do Re Mi, we are ready for both distance and in-person learning.

Remote Lessons

Over the past 5 months, we have adapted all of our programs so that we can provide our students with the best possible interactive on-line educational experience. Our teacher-directed classes are active and engaging, with the students participating in the same activities that they would in our classrooms.  Our teachers have become adept at helping students succeed, both in a group or in a private lesson setting.

At the School

If, however, you would prefer to join us in person, we have implemented a number of changes at the school in order to ensure the health and safety of our students and staff:

  • Our HVAC system has upgraded filters
  • Even though our teaching rooms are already designed to be much larger than the average in order to ensure proper air quality, we have installed fans in every room to increase air flow and improve ventilation
  • We have reconfigured the lobby in order to provide maximum space between students as they prepare to enter their classes or lessons
  • We have rescheduled class start times to minimize traffic in the hallways
  • We have reduced the maximum class size in order to ensure proper distancing within the classroom
  • We have provided proper PPE to all of our staff
  • We have implemented strict cleaning protocols, including the wiping down of every instrument and teaching tool after each use

Classes at Do Re Mi begin after Labour Day.  Whether on line or in person, we hope to see you this fall.  Visit our programs page, or contact us at 905-608-9636 or at chris@DoReMi4kids.com to find out which program would be best for you.
