You may have noticed some helpful parents in the morning carpool line getting kids out of cars and helping keep traffic moving. They’re part of Dads on Duty!
We’re looking to grow the program and get more dads—and moms and grandparents—involved. No sign-up is needed. Just show up any morning starting at 6:45 a.m. and join the crew!
