COVID – 19 Delta Variant UPDATE!

STATEMENT FROM SCHOOL PRESIDENT

As we continue to struggle with the deadly serious Delta Variant of the COVID 19 virus and adhering to my duty of SAFETY FIRST I convey the following notice:
All attendees (staff and students) of the upcoming in-person classes (November 1-10 and November 15-24) in NYC and Atlanta will be required to provide proof of full vaccination prior to attending.
The stakes are just too high and I MUST take my best efforts to protect all students and staff.
Please provide verification of full vaccination prior to coming to the DFA facility. Entry will not be permitted without vaccination verification.
Additional protocols have been provided and we have masks, hand sanitizer, and spray sanitizer on hand for use during the classes.

Thank you all for your cooperation and understanding.
