Welcome to the New Nora Elementary Dads’ Club!

What is the The Mission?

The new Nora Dads’ Club is being founded due to the fact that there is a glaring need for increased father involvement in the in the lives of the Nora Elementary kids both inside and outside of the home. History has shown us that fathers have traditionally been an underutilized resource within the educational system. Every dad has a unique skill set, wealth of experience, and a variety of interests that can be utilized to help our children.

What are the goals?

• To re-introduce Fathers to the importance of their involvement inside/outside of the home.
• To encourage bonding/building a stronger bond between Fathers and their children.
• To create a network/brotherhood of involved and active fathers at Nora Elementary School.
• To become a stronger advocates for our children and their educational experiences.
• To Have Fun at our Sponsored Events (Bonfire and Family Prom)
• Networking and Fundraising.
• To leave a long standing Legacy!
