Alps View High School is pleased to continue Project Dragon Paws, a partnership between Alps View High School and Trinity County Animal Shelter.

The project goals are simple: find forever homes for our local shelter animals and reap the many positive benefits of having animals in the classroom.

Now in our third year of the project, Project Dragon Paws is not only a huge highlight for our students, but it has also afforded them an opportunity to give back to their community.

How does it work?

• Shelter animals (fur babies) are delivered to our school as they are available at our local animal shelter.

• While at school, Alps View students feed, care for, socialize, and play with the shelter animal.

• Students photograph each shelter animal and run a social media adoption campaign as needed to help our shelter find forever homes for the animals.

• Students will visit the animal shelter during the school day to assist in animal socialization and shelter clean-up on an as-needed basis.

• Students will learn about career choices that involve animals.

• Students will pursue grants and fundraise to cover any associated costs of the project.
