How Does It Work? |
Our Watch D.O.G.S. are fathers or father-figures (grandpas, uncles, etc.) that commit to spending an entire day volunteering in our school. During the day, Watch Dogs may read and work on flashcards with students, play outside at recess, eat lunch with students and assist them with regular classroom activities.
