Students’ Capstone Research Brings VetDogs to Life in the Classroom

Albert G. Prodell Middle School students in Danielle Senneca’s IMPACT class had the incredible pleasure of welcoming a representative from America’s VetDogs during a recent class visit.
This visit grew directly out of the students’ Capstone project research on mental health. Their curiosity and dedication to the topic led them to explore the incredible work the Guide Dog Foundation does, and seeing that learning come to life in the classroom was absolutely wonderful. During the visit, representative Cristina Mirabile and Annie (the service dog) gave students an overview of VetDogs and its mission, followed by a live demonstration for the class.
