Our Animal Friends

Monty is our ball python. We know, scary! Monty has been a class pet with Mrs. Haleryn for eight years, and has been safely handled and cared for by many little ones. He is always held by a teacher and has a long legacy of helping kids (and parents!) overcome their fear of snakes! 

Muffin is our school bunny! He lives full-time in our school yard with the chickens, and provides an excellent opportunity for students to learn to care for, handle, and love animals. We give our fruit and vegetable food scraps to our bunnies and chickens!

These lovely ladies are our class hens! Our chickens roam around our yard during the day and help us with our waste reduction goals by eating much of our food scraps! We love our hens and the lessons they teach us about gentleness and giving.
