Therapy Dog To Don Her Own Cap and Gown

[Jewels53]

Beloved therapy dog to don her own cap, gown at Lawrence High’s graduation ceremony

Roxy might just be the only Lawrence High School employee capable of napping on the job and getting away with it.

That’s because Roxy isn’t like other LHS staffers. She’s a 9-year-old Golden Retriever who provides comfort, snuggles and stress relief to students at Lawrence High as the school’s official therapy dog.

After four years at the school, she’s been with this spring’s graduating seniors every step of their high school careers. On Wednesday, during the LHS commencement ceremony, Roxy will be there, too. She’ll even wear a dog-sized cap and gown for the occasion.

“I don’t know that they’d welcome me back without her at this point,” jokes Roxy’s owner, LHS English teacher Keri Lauxman. “She’s really woven into the fabric of the school.”
