Policy and Procedures

TK & Kindergarten: Coordiantor plus 2-3 additional volunteers

Throughout the school year the District observes local and federal holidays. If your child’s Art for Bears Class falls on an observed holiday, Mrs. Libby will adjust the art lessons/project accordingly in order for students to have ample time to finish projects. Due to shared classroom space make up classes for local and federal holidays will not be scheduled. Should schedule changes occur, Mrs. Libby will communicate via class AFB coordinator, and/or homeroom teacher.
