California Educational
Code 44806
California
requires the teaching of kindness to pets and of humane treatment towards animals.
Each teacher shall endeavor to impress upon
the minds of the pupils the principles of morality, truth, justice, patriotism, and a true
comprehension of the rights, duties, and dignity of American citizenship, including
kindness towards domestic pets and the humane treatment of living creatures.
Paws for
thought... Just this year alone, 3-4 million animals will be euthanized - more than a
quarter-million each month, 405 each hour, one
every nine seconds.
A devastating number
of unwanted and unplanned animals are born each year without the guarantee of a forever
home. Each home found for these animals means one less home for an already-alive
shelter animal facing euthanasia. If you could do something simple to help end this
needless destruction, wouldn't you?
PLEASE spay, neuter, adopt and spread the word!
We can all make a difference in the
lives of these animals.
Each teacher shall endeavor to impress upon
the minds of the pupils the principles of morality, truth, justice, patriotism, and a true
