Our school is full-time in-person with 2-4 per classroom opting to Zoom to classes. We do have plans in place if anyone tests positive, for going all-distance while the school is disinfected and contact tracing is done. Library book returns are given a 7-day quarantine: librarians are being overly-cautious, but no one minds. The kids understand and have been so good about this.
We've already been back at church for 3 weeks - it's a small church (about 60 active members), and we've got the pews marked for social distancing, the pulpit encased on 3 sides in a plexiglass shield (we're jokingly calling it our "popemobile"), and have four music stands modified with curved plexiglass shields for the lay leader and up to three musicians/singers, and two laptops running Zoom (one is for improving audio pickup). The trend is about half in attendance (masks, hand sanitizer, signing in should contact tracing be needed), about half on Zoom, and the few who are still sequestering and are not "tech-savvy" for Zoom getting the sermon, bulletin, and music emailed to them.
Our choir director has started small-group distance-rehearsals (next week son and I will be ringing bells to accompany two sisters singing). She had been going crazy with not being able to do anything, as you can well imagine. She and her husband both have chronic medical conditions, so they are extremely careful about not getting exposed.
How has it been going, with your choir? Have you been able to do some kind of rehearsing together in some way?
Once the all-clear is given, I'm looking forward to eating out at a restaurant (we still don't trust low-ceiling enclosed spaces where everyone does have to remove their mask), going to a movie, and taking the trips we'd planned for last summer!
