IN-PERSON CLASSES, ONLINE CLASSES, AND LANDSCAPE CAMP GROUPED BY CATEGORY

IN-PERSON CLASSES

The COVID virus is spread mostly through the concentration of particles in the air. This is more often the case than through surfaces. With this in mind, spaces need airflow to stay safe.

1. We will follow all CDC Federal, State and City guidelines regarding masks and social distancing.
2. Though the CDC has eased mask guidelines, we still recommend that masks are worn inside our school.
3. In-person classes will be held at The Art Academy. Doors will be opened before and after each class to introduce new outside air into the school and an air purifier will be used during each session. Fans and/or ceiling fans will also be turned on. Hand sanitizer will be available.
4. If students feel ill we ask that they stay home and do not attend class.
5. There will be in-person make-up classes.

ONLINE CLASSES

1. We have found that Online classes are great for students who struggle to find the motivation to work on projects at home.
2. Everyone works on individual projects.
3. The online classes will be held via Zoom.
4. An invitation will be sent to participants 15 minutes before a class begins, with students entering the Zoom classroom 5 minutes before class time.
5. We will begin with hellos, followed by one-on-one introductory comments given on each project.
6. Throughout the class students may send photos of their work to their teacher via email.
7. Photos will be shared and analyzed by way of the screenshare feature on Zoom. This will give everyone the opportunity to learn from other students’ projects.
8. The class ends with an overview of projects and ideas for personalized homework if students desire to do it.
9. We realize that The Art Academy benefits students in two distinct ways. First, there is the instruction; but equally important is the informal interaction pupils have with fellow students and teachers. To that end, EVERY online class comes with a weekly Friday Night Hangout Session. The session runs from 6:30 pm to 7:30 pm.
   a. These Sessions form a gathering of likeminded individuals to work on projects while casually enjoying the company of others.
   b. There is always a teacher monitoring the session so students can get extra help with any challenges they may be experiencing in their artwork.
10. Students may also use the Hangout Sessions to make up any classes that have missed throughout the term.
