While our core SOLAAR program continues as usual, Paws & Progress sessions will be scheduled at specific times throughout the week, giving students the opportunity to step into a calmer, more focused environment where they can build both social- emotional and academic skills with the added support of a trained therapy dog.

These sessions are designed to support:

• Emotional regulation

• Focus and attention

• Confidence and communication

• Anxiety reduction and overall well-being

Therapy dogs offer a unique kind of support. It is steady, nonjudgmental, and incredibly grounding. For many children, this creates a sense of safety that allows them to take risks, try new things, and engage more fully in learning and social interaction.

Paws & Progress is a structured opportunity for social, emotional, and academic growth.
