Once you've completed orientation, you can attend ANY Bucket Brigade session at Greenville Animal Care. You must ALWAYS have an adult available on site with you. (It is okay for one parent to be the grown up for a carpool of friends.) Once a month, a Beck Bucket Brigade Teacher-Mentor (Ms. Sutton or Ms. Grant) will host a supervised Beck session. On these days, parents can drop you off and pick you up. The Beck Teacher-Mentor will be there to be your grown up on those days.
Grown-Ups:
Please make sure that the Teacher-Mentor (Ms. Sutton or Ms. Grant) sees you drop your student off!
Please make sure to pick your students up on time - these are unpaid, volunteer hours for the Teacher-Mentors as well!
You are invited to stay for part or all of the volunteer sessions!
