Congratulations, Bubbling Wells Bobcats!

I was thrilled and honored to be invited to another exciting Adoption Ceremony at Bubbling Wells Elementary School, one of three California Gold Ribbon Schools in Palm Springs Unified School District that are participating in How Dogs Help Kids Read and Succeed in the Classroom. After leading  the students in their Love Pledge for their plush pups, another 133 students became official "pet parents" and got to take home their pups to become part of their forever families. And the best part? Well, aside from the beaming faces of the graduates, it was the wonderful comments by the principal, Omar Tinoco, who explained how this program has positively impacted student reading engagement and achievement. Congratulations on all of your hard work, Bobcats!
