LI high school-turned-animal sanctuary has pack of dogs, peacocks strutting around campus

A Nassau County high school teaches respect for nature in an incredibly unique way — by caring for several exotic animals like peacocks and a pack of furry friends that kids have fallen in love with.

“We say that one trip to the dog is worth two to the counselor,” Brother Kenneth Hoagland, principal of Kellenberg Memorial High School, told The Post.

“It really does create a good mental health environment for the students,” added the canine lover who lives on campus with fellow pet-loving Marianists and three other dogs — in addition to a half dozen more that commute in each day with teachers and faculty.

The Uniondale-based Catholic academy brought in two new puppies for the school year, an adorable Samoyed named Magnus, and a miniature Bernese named Frassati after Saint Pier Giorgio Frassati.

They join the entire Kellenberg pound in roaming the halls where they welcome students’ love — and rubs — during academic hours.
