LEARN SOME FOUR-LEGGED LESSONS

Bring the Humane Society to your elementary school! Through our Classroom Education Program, a BHS representative will do an hour-long presentation on “how to be a responsible pet owner” and “what it means to be a humane being.” The program is made age-appropriate for each particular class.

Why offer humane education in the classroom?

  • Fosters responsibility
  • Builds a sense of family & community
  • Develops empathy
  • Teaches problem-solving
  • Creates a sense of self-worth

    An important part of our mission, these educational programs are offered free of charge to all elementary schools in Berkshire County.
