Health students at Bailey Middle School had the opportunity to meet two emotional support dogs today, Officer Finn and Officer Sunny! These dogs have gone through two years of training to become emotional support dogs with the New Haven Police Department. Students have been learning about Social and Emotional Health in their health classes, and Officers Finn and Sunny allowed our students a glimpse into the social and emotional benefits of therapy dogs. Thank you Officer Lambe, for bringing in Officer Finn, and thank you Detective Boyle, for bringing in Officer Sunny to meet our Bailey students!
