Haworth School Pets 

Most of the classrooms at Haworth Public School contain a fish tank. This project was originally funded by the Home and School Association. The work of maintaining the tanks is handled by the "Guppy Club," a group of dedicated seventh grade band members headed by Mr. Nasta, resident fish expert.

Additionally, several staff members care for a couple of unusual animals.

Chet Gecko resides in a tank in the library and is named for a character in a detective series by Bruce Hale. He is an African Fat-tailed gecko who loves to eat crickets. His colors are quite vibrant because he has just shed his skin. You can see pieces of it on the left side of the picture and on his feet, which take awhile to shed.
Coming soon: a picture of Ms. Wimer's albino corn snake.
