Fathers In Education Day

Fathers in Action & Advocacy Week

Thursday, April 18, 2024

We are celebrating the 11th Fathers in Education Day and Fathers in Action & Advocacy Week on April 18 and April 15-19 respectively. We encourage all M-DCPS fathers and male significant others to participate in their child’s local schools. 
 
Children no matter what level of education they attend reap academic and social benefits from their fathers’ continuous support and involvement in their studies and schools. This year we are excited to share that the 11th Fathers in Education Day’s Host School is North Miami Middle School in collaboration with Arch Creek Elementary School and North Miami Senior High School.
