During the week before “PAW” (Projects & Assessments Week) in early March, the Upper School club called My Mind Matters (MMM) hosted a therapy dogs event for Upper School students. The two furry visitors, Oscar and Thor, made themselves comfortable in Hulst House, while students enjoyed their company. Students also learned about the process of therapy-dog certification through organizations like Bright and Beautiful Therapy Dogs, and the benefits of dogs and pets to one’s mental health. Thank you to Jill and Jill, Oscar and Thor’s owners, and MMM for the lovely afternoon!
