Mask and Vaccination Policy

Masks are optional for campers & staff and are available at each camp session.

COVID-19 vaccinations are recommended for staff and campers, but not required.

If you would like information about COVID-19 vaccinations for children 5 years of age and older, we recommend you visit https://www.austintexas.gov/covid19

By participating in Paramount Camps, you voluntarily assume all risks related to COVID-19 exposure. We reserve the right to change our policies and to require masks, for any reason, based on the recommendations of the CDC or Austin Public Health.

What we will do

• We will notify all parents and guardians if there is a positive COVID-19 case among campers or staff. We will also inform parents if the positive case is among your child’s color group.
• We will not disclose the name of the positive camper.
• We will regularly clean and sanitize rooms and surfaces.
• As much as possible, campers will stay with their groups (approximately 15 students) and maintain distance.
• We will maintain a supply of adult and child sized masks, available to campers and staff at any time. We will also stock hand sanitizer in every classroom.

What we ask you to do

• If your camper shows symptoms of illness, you will be asked to come pick your camper up from camp.
• Please do not send your child to camp if they are experiencing any signs of illness or COVID-19 symptoms.

Paramount Education does not guarantee that camps cancelled due to circumstances beyond our control (i.e., weather, power outage) will be made up; no refunds will be issued. We do not offer make-up days due to a child’s inability to attend. In rare instances, camps may be cancelled 2-weeks prior to the start of camp due to low enrollment. A full refund will be issued in these cases. We ask that you please communicate any planned absences to the Camp Administrator on the first day of camp. This will help us to create a productive camp rehearsal schedule.

We do not offer make-up days and no refunds will be issued due to a child’s inability to attend, because of illness or other circumstances.

Any cancellations must be communicated before May 1st. You will be refunded less a $100 administrative fee before May 1st. There are no refunds after May 1st, 2025. If you are registered for a camp and need to change sessions, there will be a $50 administrative fee once the change is approved. If your camp session is cancelled due to low enrollment, you will be refunded your tuition payment.

We will not offer refunds based on our mask, vaccination, or COVID-19 health and safety policies.

We strongly suggest that nothing of value be brought to camp. Cell phones, tablets, and other electronic devices are only allowed to be used during break and lunch times. Paramount Education assumes no responsibility for any lost or damaged personal items.

Paramount Education reserves the right to use photos and videos taken during camps and performances for promotional (via print or the web) and archival purposes only. In an effort to keep our young performances safe and to maintain focus, the taking of photographs, videotaping, and the use of recording devices is not permitted during camp performances. All performances are filmed and photographed by Paramount Education. Digital copies of camp performances and performance photographs will be shared with camp families after the camp concludes.

In order to provide students with a safe and supportive environment, Paramount Education maintains a strict “Zero Tolerance” policy in regard to physical or verbal abuse, theft, vandalism, and the use of any and all illegal substances. Any student found in violation of this policy will be asked to leave the camp and no refunds will be issued.
