All of us are familiar with the practices that we must adhere to within our own schools; therefore, we will also rely on all attendees to use best practices when attending PTAC.  This includes, but not limited to, maintaining a 6-foot rule.  If an area looks crowded, avoid it for a later time.  Continuous handwashing.  Make sure you pick up after yourself, including the bathroom.  While this may be a given, you’d be surprised at what our cleaning crews have had to clean up.

Even in these circumstances, training requirements remain the same.  This is why we continue to press forward and work hard at bringing the training to you.
