The South Allegheny School District is getting a new therapy dog to help support student wellness.
The district announced Monday that by late November or early December, "Gladdy," a Cavapoo, will be welcomed into the district as part of "ongoing efforts to support the whole child -- academically, socially, and emotionally."
Gladdy will help provide emotional support and comfort to students across all schools in the South Allegheny district and will be what the district calls a unique resource that can help with reducing stress, improving emotional regulation, and fostering a positive school environment.
