Humane Education

A key tenant in the GMHS mission is to provide humane education. GMHS believes that the building of a more kind, just and loving community for pets and people begins with instilling the values of kindness and compassion in the children of our community. 

We offer a variety of interactive, educational programs to students in classrooms (PreK-12th grade), school enrichment clubs, scout troops, youth groups, and other community organizations. Our programs include, but are not limited to:
​

• Responsible Pet Ownership
• Importance of Spay/Neuter
• Dog Safety
• Animal-based Careers
• Role of Animal Welfare Organizations in the Community

Please contact GMHS to learn more about our humane education programs.
