Ann Arbor Skyline High School Therapy Dog

Skyline High School is seeing increased stress, clinical anxiety, and clinical depression among its students. These emotional and psychological challenges are barriers to learning, growth, and development. However, research-based evidence shows that therapy dogs positively impact learning, cognition, mood, and behavior. In addition, when therapy dogs visit, students report lots of positive benefits!

 

Skyline seeks donations to secure a Golden Doodle, provide the dog with intensive training, and maintain the dog, including all care and upkeep (food, veterinary services, and grooming).

 

Donors who wish to will be recognized in an announcement at a school-wide assembly. Donations above $250 include additional recognition and benefits, such as patches on the dog's vest or a plaque at the school.  For more information, please see this letter.

To donate by check or learn more about donor recognition, please contact Casey Elmore, SLC Principal, at [email redacted].mi.us.

 

All donations are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.
