"Teachers want dogs to help students learn" (Northern Star, 02/03/09)

It is not unusual to see dogs helping disabled people do everyday activities.

Three teachers from Cortland Elementary School, 50 W. Maple Ave., want to take it a step further and use therapy dogs to help students learn.

First grade teacher Amy Boona and third grade teacher Shelly Quade went before the Board of Education to propose a 14-week pilot program with their own dogs.
