Meet Summer Hope 🐶☀️
Summer is a certified therapy dog with Therapy Dogs United! Alongside her handler, Susan, she recently spent time visiting our Kindergarten and 1st grade students here at Connell. The students loved the opportunity to interact with Summer and learn more about the important role therapy dogs play in supporting others.
Therapy dogs provide comfort, encouragement, and emotional support to individuals with a variety of specialized needs, and we are so thankful for Summer and Susan’s special visit! 💛

May is Mental Health Awareness Month 💚🧠
At our school, we believe every child deserves to feel safe, supported, and heard. We are committed to nurturing not only academic growth, but emotional well-being—because healthy minds help students thrive both in and out of the classroom.
Let’s continue to work together—educators, families, and community—to create a space where every student feels valued and empowered to share their voice.
