Happy Tails @ the EC this Fall!

For the third school year in a row, the Elementary Campus will continue to partner with Happy Tails, a volunteer dog therapy organization, that provides visits about twice a month with specially trained dogs and their owners. You are invited to recommend your child to participate in Happy Tail visits. 

• Please ask your child/ren if they would like to take part before you sign them up. It’s not uncommon that children are recommended and given parent permission but then decline to attend (which takes up precious participant spots). 
• Group sizes are limited! Please note: we will prioritize students who are specifically recommended by their teachers or other school staff. It is important for us to keep the groups a manageable size for both kids and dogs alike.
• Not everyone who is signed up by a caregiver will be able to take part this semester. There will be another opportunity to sign up in January 2027 for the Spring Semester.

Sign up by THURSDAY, AUGUST 20, 2026 at midnight for Fall 2026 Happy Tails. 

Elementary Campus Caregivers: Please fill out this permission form to allow your child in to visit with the dogs.  If you have questions, please reach out to Lindy Settevendemie at LSETTE@atlncs.org or 404-624-6226.
