ESTEAM Learning Lab’s response to COVID-19 (aka Coronavirus)
Face Coverings:
As of April 22 at 11:59pm, face coverings will no longer required by City Ordinance.
As a parent, you and your child(ren) will have the choice to wear a face-covering or not. Again, be respectful of individuals as they make choices to wear or not wear a face covering.
Echoing the Executive Director’s words:
“As an educational organization, I would ask everyone to protect themselves to the level they see fit. If you can maintain social distancing please do so. Interact with caution and respect others.”
We will continue our sanitization practices before and after classes and self-screening.

Be proactive! Take simple steps to protect your child.
Be proactive! Take simple steps to protect your family.
- Wash your hands with soap and water frequently. It takes 15-20 seconds to get them clean enough.
- Avoid touching a person who is obviously sick.
- Avoid touching your own eyes and face (viruses can transmit from our hands into our bodies).
- Please cover your mouth and nose when you sneeze or cough. Remember to cough and sneeze into your elbow (the “vampire sneeze“) or into a tissue, not into your hand.
Deep cleaning takes place of our equipment in between classes, camps, and events. We do our best to clean and sanitized all items.
