Testimonials

We have been able to incorporate speech and language skills during times with Moose. In addition, Moose has provided extra incentive for students to be on task during the week in school.

Throughout the school year, Laila became a positive influence for a student who was previously “stuck,” and in turn, the student made great gains in becoming a more flexible thinker and easing his frustration independently.

Reading fluency is a HUGE goal in our new LA Journeys program. It was a weekly goal for kids to work on this goal using Frisco and Ms Marilyn as their audience, which helped keep all the kids excited about reading aloud – my best year fluency-wise yet!

My husband and I are so pleased with the Nor’wester Readers program. Hannah has given our son the individual attention he needs. She sits and listens to every word Kyle is trying to say. As a result, Kyle has improved his reading, oral speech, and his self confidence.

I have students in my class that suffer emotionally and/or mentally due to attention issues or an inner battle with depression and anxiety. Kerrigan has eased their little minds and gave them something to look forward to each week.

Your program is priceless! Each year I have seen my more reluctant readers grow to confident readers. Thank you for allowing us to participate.

Your organization is an asset to the Council Rock School District. I am forever grateful that my daughter had the opportunity to experience a therapy dog.

– Parent

The academic and behavioral growth of my students was impacted by our therapy dog visits. Students who never considered themselves readers suddenly began to go to the library to select books for personal reading enjoyment.

This year I had a child who, for lack of a better description, would emotionally implode – truly shut down throughout the day when things were too overwhelming or difficult, particularly in Math. With Frisco and Ms. Marilyn’s help, this child’s behaviors improved as the implosions became less. . . much less.

Sadie’s presence provided an encouraging, welcoming, and loving environment where disabilities became abilities.
