I am excited, with the help of the PTC, to bring a wonderful program called Watch D.O.G.S. to Cannonsburg Elementary. This program will benefit our students, teachers, our fathers, and father- figures! To learn more about this amazing program, I am extending an invitation to ‘Dads’ and students to come and have a night of pizza and conversation on October 25, from 6:00- 7:00! Please RSVP with the attached form by Oct. 24, by sending in the form to school, for the correct pizza and drink count.
Below is just a little more information about the program.
WATCH D.O.G.S. ® (Dads Of Great Students) is a family and community engagement educational initiative.
There are 2 primary goals of the WATCH D.O.G.S. ® program.
1) To provide positive male role models for the students, demonstrating by their presence that education is important.
2) To provide extra sets of eyes and ears to enhance school security and reduce bullying. WATCH D.O.G.S.® began in 1998 in a single school in Springdale, Arkansas and has since grown into a nationally recognized program that has brought hundreds of thousands of fathers and father figures into the school classrooms and hallways across the country, creating millions of hours of “in school” volunteer time and having a tremendously positive impact on the educational process.
