We’re excited to welcome Toby, the newest member of our school family! Toby will be a wonderful addition to our building, helping to create a positive, supportive atmosphere for both students and staff.
Toby’s handler is Mrs. Murphy, and he’ll be joining her at school a couple of days each week. Toby is here to bring comfort, connection, and cheer to our students. Toby will visit wherever he is needed; that could be classrooms, the library, the hallways, or the counselor's office.
In the coming weeks, Mrs. Murphy will visit classrooms with Toby to introduce him and help students learn how to interact with him safely and respectfully.
We can't wait to see the smiles Toby brings and the positive impact he’ll have on our school community! Keep an eye out for fun updates and heartwarming moments as Toby settles into his new role.
