Our Rainbow Safeties had a super special Sunday! These students visited LaMancha Animal Rescue where they learned about the importance of animal rescue and helped to socialize their youngest puppies. We're sure it was a tough job, but leave it to these Wildcats to be up to the challenge!

The Safeties delivered donations of food and supplies and were thanked with lots of puppy cuddles! Thank you, LaMancha Animal Rescue, for having them!
