WATCH D.O.G.S. (Dads Of Great Students)
is an innovative
program of the National Center for Fathering focusing on
prevention of violence in our nation’s schools by using the
positive influence of fathers and father-figures for a two-fold
purpose:
1) to provide an unobtrusive presence in the schools, and
2) to be a positive and active role-model for students at their
school.
WATCH D.O.G.S. was founded by Jim Moore, a
concerned father who chose to take action in response to a 1998
middle-school shooting in Jonesboro, AR. Joined with National
Center for Fathering in 2006, WATCH D.O.G.S. serves to
inspire and equip men to be the involved fathers, grandfathers and
father-figures their students need. To find out more about this
important program read this introductory flier

on-line End of Day survey and then please call the dads for
the next day.BCE
