KEYSTONE HEIGHTS— McRae Elementary and Keystone Heights Elementary School participated in the school district’s Dads Take Your Child to School Day on Sept. 28.
During the Oct. 5 school board meeting, Superintendent David Broskie said a father’s involvement in his child’s education is critical.
He added that the event helped the district fulfill one of five strategies outlined in its strategic plan: increasing family involvement.
“There’s always a saying that there’s nothing like a mother’s love for a child,” he said. “I’m going to one-up that and say there’s nothing more important than a father’s pride in their child and involvement in their life. We need you out there, Dads, to be involved in your child’s education.”
The superintendent said that several women responded to the event by saying Mom’s Day is every day.
“Yes, I get it,” Broskie added. “But this is one day to celebrate Dads.”
