A weekly look at father involvement in education through the Watch D.O.G.S. program of the National Center for Fathering.
Chad Vice of the Truman Elementary School Watch D.O.G.S. program in Norman, OK tells us about the production of the “Show Me the WatchDOGS” video which is a satire of the “Show Me the Money” scene from the Jerry McGuire movie. After posting on YouTube and on the Watch D.O.G.S. Facebook group, this video has gotten some national attention.
Dads of Great Students is a national program currently operating in 47 states, D.C., Puerto Rico, Mexico and even China. Over 3000 schools utilize the fathers and father figures within their own community to enhance the environment and safety of their schools.
Watch D.O.G.S. National Coordinator Keith Schumacher is the host of the show. Senior National Program Developer Chris Danenhauer co-hosts and they are regularly joined by Watch D.O.G.S. Executive Director Eric Snow.
