Sit, Stay, Read!

Reading aloud is great practice for accuracy, speed, expression, and comprehension, but it can also be anxiety provoking.  At this program, readers aged 5-12 can enjoy the quiet, judgement-free listening of certified therapy dogs.  Schedule your 15 minute appointment with a certified dog/handler pair from Mountaineer Therapy Dogs and watch your student's confidence grow! 

Due to the nature of this event, space is limited to 8 appointments.  A waitlist will be developed, if cancellations or additional appointments arise.  Walk-ins cannot be honored.

To Register:  send an email to mmahoney@mcpls.org listing parent/guardian name, email address and phone, and the name and age of the reader.  A confirmation email will be sent in return.
