Anti-Bullying Policy

At Montalvo we have zero tolerance for bullying. Bullying of any kind will result in the immediate removal from camp. The physical and emotional safety of our students and staff are central to Montalvo’s camps and vital to its overall mission. As such, we take the issues of bullying, harassment, and violence very seriously. Bullying is generally defi ned as when one or more people maliciously exclude, tease, taunt, gossip, hit, kick, or put down another. Montalvo’s leadership investigates any and all allegations of bullying, and trains camp supervisors to promote positive communication, so that students can feel comfortable voicing their concerns to staff. By working together as a team to identify and manage bullying, we can help ensure that everybody has a great experience here at Montalvo.

    These workshops are tailored to young artists ages 12 to 17 years old. Class sizes are smaller and instruction is more personalized and in-depth. Emphasis will be placed on helping students express their unique voice and cultivate individual creative practice long after the session has ended.

    PLEASE NOTE:

    • Sessions designated “Ages 6-10” can accommodate older students, but feature a curriculum targeted toward a 6-10 year-old audience.
    • All content is subject to change.
