Please join us in welcoming our new PPS therapy dog who will be working at all four elementary schools on a rotating basis once he is fully trained. To select the right dog for the elementary schools, Ms. Sarah Moore, PPS Supervisor of Elementary Education, worked with a Golden Doodle breeder that has experience in training and placing dogs in therapeutic settings. Ms. Moore recently asked elementary students to vote on a name for the puppy. The winning name was Tiger. Once Tiger completes his full course of training, which may take the remainder of this school year, he will join Ms. Moore at the elementary schools as an official therapy dog, rotating through the schools on a weekly basis.

Every school year, we seek to provide all of our students with yet another year filled with learning, positive relationships, and the joys of success and accomplishment.
