Goal
All Pro Dads is a program for fathers that helps them love and lead their family well. Muller will fulfill this mission by hosting bimonthly breakfasts where fathers/guardians/caregivers can bond with their children, learn parenting strategies, and form a community with each other and the school.
What will be done with my students
When parents have the tools they need to be successful, their children flourish. It is also well known that increased parental engagement leads to better grades, more consistent attendance, fewer behavioral issues, and an increased ability to learn. It is, therefore, not only the responsibility of schools to help our children succeed by making sure the parents succeed as well but also in our best interest to do so. Creating a supporting and safe community of fathers/guardians/caregivers all focused on being better parents for our children will benefit everyone involved. Muller will host bimonthly All Pro Dads breakfasts as a means of building this supportive community. During each breakfast, school faculty and staff will provide a brief presentation on a parental success topic along with materials to support success at home. Time will also be provided for dads/guardians/caregivers and children to eat with each other, socialize, and form a community of support. We would also like to provide items as giveaways to encourage attendance and support our families.
Benefits to my students
Over the school year we will host three All Pro Dads breakfasts. Each one is open to all dads/guardians/caregivers and students. Because these breakfasts are open to all families, they have the potential to reach all of our students and their families. By providing presentations and materials on parental success, we are increasing the success of our Muller families and our students. By providing food, community, and giveaways, we are increasing parental participation and engagement; two factors that will improve student success at our school.
