Respect animals by learning how to treat them ethically. Our youngest learners will be educated on respecting an unfamiliar animal, and when you can safely approach them. Older students will learn about the ethical treatment of animals, and why they need our respect, too.

Having a pet is a big responsibility! Our youngest learners will be educated on the 5 Steps to Being a Responsible Pet Owner, while older students will learn about spaying and neutering, and why it is so important to be a responsible pet owner in this Valley. (Download the “Spay and Neuter Math Facts” worksheet for a sample of the activities we can provide!)

Students of any age can learn how to be a good citizen by helping their community! Our youngest learners will be educated on what animal shelters do to help animals in the community, and how they can help, too. Older students will have the option of learning about volunteerism in preparation for their future careers, and can even have their own Volunteer Orientation Meeting for groups of 20 or more students ages 12 or older. Just like our regular Volunteer Orientation, students will be taught the expectations for volunteers, and what jobs are available for them here in our facility.
