I as a father and/or significant male role model in the life of a child understand I have a considerable role in their academic success. As a father, I acknowledge I am my children's first and most influential teacher. I also agree the academic successes of my children are enhanced when an unbreakable partnership between home and school is created. To solidify this partnership, I pledge to remain engaged in the academic life of my child. As an engaged father, dedicated dad, or significant male role I pledge to: • Observe my child’s classroom at least twice a year • Attend a non-sports related school event • Visit my child’s school website for information • Join and participate in a school’s formal parent organization • Volunteer in my child’s school • Attend an informational workshop held at my child’s school • Attend a school board meeting • Assist tmy child with homework assignments • Review and understand requirements for High School graduation • Review and understand the role and expectations of an incoming 9th grader • Participate in at least one Parent Teacher Conference.
