Food
From kindergarten through high school, we help students see animals as individuals—not ingredients. In grades K–2, we focus on their needs and personalities (because once you know a chicken loves dust baths, you know that life in a cage is cruel). By grades 3–5, we start exploring real-world issues and human impact, and in grades 6–12, we spark critical thinking about society’s treatment of animals—helping students connect the dots and discover how they can make a difference.
