Safety Additions:

St. Mary’s Ryken High School follows the health and safety guidelines provided by Governor Hogan and the St. Mary's County Health Department including cleaning and sanitation, social distancing, mask-wearing and limiting group sizes. The safety of our students and faculty is our top priority. 

For Youth Honors Chorus, rehearsals will be held outside. In the event of inclement weather, rehearsal may be moved to Zoom or rescheduled. All parents/guardians will be notified via text message and email as soon as possible.

All attendees must wear a face covering, over the nose and under the mouth, during rehearsals, at drop-off and pick-up and during the concert. 

Students should bring a water bottle as no access to water fountains will be provided. 

During drop-off, students will complete a health screening questionnaire.

Additional guidance may be communicated with families as it becomes available.
