Lucy the chicken has brought smiles to Howell Elementary students' faces one cluck at a time since September 2022.

TUCSON, AZ — Schools having pets is nothing new, but how often do you hear about a school’s pet chicken?

"Everyone was sad when we had to let them go," said one of the fourth-graders who helped raise Lucy last year. Another fourth-grade student shared the excitement she and her classmates had when they first found out Lucy would become a member of the school. "She was so kind to us; she never hurt us or anything like that," the student said, describing Lucy. The other student added,"She would sit in our lap, I would read with her, and she would fall asleep. She’s just so kind."
