Please reach us at info@fatherfriendlyschools.org if you cannot find an answer to your question.
We often hear school administrators state that they held an event such as a "Donuts With Dad" and had a great turnout. They are then confused when the dads that showed up for the event don't show up for anything else. The answer is simple, with "one-and-done" events, the school creates the illusion that dads are only welcome on that one day per year. Schools need to provide opportunities to be engaged that are consistent throughout the school year. We will train you and your staff on what to do "After the Donut".
The National Alliance for Father Friendly Schools is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that relies on contributions from great folks who believe in family engagement. If you believe in family engagement that is welcoming and inclusive of all family members including fathers, please help us with a donation.
Local school administrators are regularly seeking best practices in education and family engagement. Reach out to your local school administrator or school district and let them know about what we are doing. We are here to help them engage more family members and help them reach their family engagement and possibly compliance goals regarding federal or state funding.
A mixed methods analysis of survey
data indicated that K–12 schools were significantly less father-friendly than
social service organizations, with K–12 schools disclosing that little to no ser-
vices targeted fathers and most family engagement efforts prioritized mothers
or assumed father disinterest.
