My students take great pride in assisting in the care of our corn snake, Jason. They help feed him, they change his water, and they even assist in cleaning out his cage. However, his home is currently outfitted with a shoe box as his hide and a broken plastic pencil box as a water dish. Our class pet is an integral part of our classroom community and we want his cage to be a point of pride in our room. However, right now his cage does not seem much like a home. Some of my students have even offered to help pay for a new hide, heat lamp, or water dish for Jason. As impressed as I am with their concern for our pet, I could never let them use their own money to take care of Jason. In a school that serves a high needs community, it is hard to find room in the budget for things that aren't absolutely necessary for the function of our school and redecorating our snake's terrarium is not a high priority. It is my goal to help my students give Jason the home he deserves and I really appreciate your donations to meet this goal.
