Ep. 38 - How Can I Get Involved in My Kids' School?
This is the All Pro Dad podcast, where in each episode, dads of all ages dive into just one question. Today, we ask, “How can I get involved in my kids’ school?”
When dads get involved in their kids’ education, great things typically happen. Grades tend to improve. Behavior problems usually fade. The rates of teen pregnancy, incarceration, and drug use all drop. Dads play an enormous role in their kids’ education experience—if they get involved. Ted Lowe, Buck Buchanan, and Jason Hood, director of All Pro Dad Chapters, talk about how easy it is for dads to get plugged in at school.
The All Pro Dad Chapters program started as a way to get dads to connect with their kids at school. Chapters offer monthly meeting opportunities for dads to spend quality time with their children before school to strengthen their relationships. One day a month, dads and their kids meet together and walk through different topics that invoke meaningful conversations. There are active chapters in nearly all 50 states and internationally, including in countries like Egypt, Kenya, Uganda, and Greece.
Over 250,000 people attended All Pro Dad chapter meetings during the 2023 school year. To hear from participants, check out our testimonials page: https://www.allprodad.com/testimonies/
Bottom line: Be intentional about your kids’ education.
