PAWS is the most exciting part of the week for my students (and myself). [The students] can't take their eyes off our educator, she is super engaging and does an amazing job motivating them. — Leslie Dodson, 4th Grade Teacher

I learned that spay and neuter is a great way to help [pets] and stop overpopulation. — Brendan, 4th Grade Student

Kids learned to be more empathetic towards animals. They understand the impacts of pet overpopulation and are learned so much about wildlife and how to help keep those animals safe and healthy. — Heather Grutz, 4th Grade Teacher
