Dear Parents and Guardians:
We are incredibly excited to introduce you to two staff members that will be joining us this fall. We welcome Bella and Charlie to our Middle School team as Certified Therapy Dogs.
Bella
Charlie and Ms. Shannon
Bella and Charlie are at our school to provide companionship, relieve loneliness, improve self-esteem, and relieve anxiety. They teach our students compassion and respect for other living things. And, reading to dogs has shown to help children develop literacy skills and build confidence.
If you are concerned about possible allergic reactions to dogs, please contact the office at 618-254-7561.
Yours in education,
Dave Oestreich and Jordan Brannon
