Watch DOGS

The WatchDOGS program is an important part of our school and we're looking for more dads (or step-dads, uncles, grand-dads or older brothers) to be part of this awesome program.   The WatchDOGS dads at Caraway help keep the school safe and provide a positive and active role-model for all students at our school.  Its a great way to get a glimpse of their students' everyday world during school hours and is an EXTREMELY rewarding experience.

The typical WatchDOGS volunteer day will be spent in the kids classrooms, help around the office and library, help monitor lunch and recess and just be a positive male presence in the school.  If you choose to come at the beginning of the day - you and your child will be on the morning KOWL news as well (the kids love being on the news with their dads).

We don't require a huge commitment - come when you can!  An hour or two, a half-day, a full day - whatever works with your schedule.

I bet if you ask your child "Do you want me to be a WatchDOG dad at school?" - the answer will be "Yes….PLEEEEEEEEESE DAD!!!!!"

Please email our Top Dog - bruce.kornfeld@gmail.com or call him at 512-934-1686 to get set up to be part of the WatchDOGS program.
