New! Class Connector
When BASK (Bristol After School Kids’ Program) begins on June 18th, an exciting new collaboration with the Bristol Rec Department gets off the ground.
Children needing a safe place to be until their Rec Department programs begin can be enrolled with special status in “CLASS Connector” to be in the care of BASK at Bristol Elementary
School. Supervision at the school, and an escort to the site of rec classes in town would be provided to those enrolling, on a first‐come, first‐served basis.
We’re working to determine if this is a needed/welcomed service, so please contact: Anne Gleason at Mary Johnson Children’s Center (Phone: 388‐2853, ext. 23, or via e‐mail @ schoolage@mjccvt.org ) to get a “CLASS Pass”, and/or more information.
