Parent Involvement at Dean Road Elementary

Dean Road Elementary School welcomed dads, guardians, and grandfathers to join in on the fun with students during P.E. classes. Coach Chad Jordan had the men build hula-hoop towers that required protection from frenetic flying of dodgeballs being thrown by the students. After several rounds of the game, everyone walked away with a smile on their face and a pep in their step! This event allowed father figures to connect with their children in an enjoyable and active way!
