On a Tuesday morning this past February, students set aside their usual routines to welcome two special guests: Heather Franco from East Bay SPCA and Elsa, a petite, white-and-tan dog with bouncy charm and expressive eyebrows.

The holiday season is upon us! This year our gatherings may be smaller than usual, but we still need to keep a careful eye on those who bring us so much joy year ‘round - our family pets.
