Odom Elementary Hosts First Donuts for Dads

Approximately 57 dads and legal guardians attended Odom Elementary School’s first Donuts for Dads meeting held October 16. Brent Brooks, skills specialist at the Odom Elementary School, and José Sarmiento, second grade teacher at the campus, presented information to the dads in attendance seeking to be more involved in their children’s education. Topics discussed included the importance of being positive role models for their children, reading at home with their kids, and being actively involved in school.

Once the presentation concluded, staff members encouraged the dads and their children to visit the Book Fair. Each family had a lot of fun selecting books to promote reading at home and to set the stage for future learning.
