Thanks to the efforts of one of our School Counselors, Steve Greene, Round Elementary participates in a Therapy Dog Program! "Shakespeare" and his owner/handler Lori Stephenson are part of Manassas Therapy Dogs, a volunteer organization that connects trained therapy dogs with local schools and community organizations.
Shakespeare visits with students in small groups for about 10 minutes at a time. Shakespeare has a positive impact on our students emotional well-being and social skills, which ultimately leads to higher academic performance and physical health.
