Circus Juventas Fall Session Guide 2020 A nonprofit, 501(c)3 performing arts circus school for youth dedicated to inspiring artistry and self -confidence through a multicultural circus arts www.circusjuventas.org experience Welcome to fall session! Fall is an exciting time at Circus Juventas as we embark on a new year. In this current global situation, we are grateful to be able to welcome new and returning students back to the big top for in-person training. Our adapted summer session was a remarkable success, and we look forward to continuing the trend in fall. Please note that due to state mandates, we will be operating at a limited capacity for fall session. Luckily for CJ, the large, open nature of our facility and auxiliary spaces within the building provide plenty of room to meet these requirements while still being able to offer a wide range of classes and levels to our families. As we cannot anticipate how many of our families will feel comfortable attending fall session, we are offering a robust schedule at the time of registration. Based on registration numbers, we will then adjust class sizes and offerings to ensure that we are within our hourly capacity limitations and that our students and staff can maintain a safe 6 ft. distance during classes. What this means for our families is that we cannot give the usual level of assurance that students will be accepted into a requested class. The health and safety of our students, staff, and community is our top priority, and we are working diligently to adhere to all mandates and recommendations from Governor Walz, the Minnesota Department of Health, and the CDC. To view our preparedness plan, click here. Please also see how we have ranked our classes into CJ Stay Safe Categories on page 12. Our registration process carefully considers the placement of each student to find the best class for their interests, skills, and schedule. This guide helps focus your choices. Start narrowing down by genre (i.e. experience, acrobatics, aerial, etc.) and use the table of contents below or the index of classes on pages 3-5 of the guide to find a specific class. We highly recommend you take the time to read this entire guide, especially the pages about important dates (page 9) and how the guide works (pages 12-13). We are also happy to answer questions at 651-699-8229 or by email at [email protected]. The registration deadline is Wednesday, August 26, at 12 p.m.!
