Attention Employers:
Bring Your Dad to School 9/14/2010
Dear Employer: We ask that you support our efforts to connect dads, kids, and
schools in any way possible by helping dads attend our “Bring Your Dad to School Day”.
Research shows that the better the parent child relationship, the more productive the
employee. When parents are better informed about their child and school, there is less
parental anxiety on the job. Please allow dads the time off in whatever form or fashion so
that he may attend his child’s school for a morning. We appreciate your consideration.
