All children grades 1st-5th are invited to read to a Humane Society of Marion County dog on select Saturday mornings at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Class is for 1 hour and starts promptly.
The child must register in advance. Choose the dates you prefer. If the date is available to select, your child will be accepted into the class. There is a maximum of 12 children per session. A parent/guardian must accompany the child and stay at the shelter (in a separate area) while the child reads. Children do better when reading to a non-judgmental dog with no outside criticism.
