Record Number of Dads Attend SHES Event

On Jan. 29th, more than 425 dads and their students attended the annual Donuts for Dads event at Spring Hill Elementary School. Besides sharing time together over donuts and juice, the dads had the opportunity to find out more about the school's Watch D.O.G.S. program and sign up to spend a day at the school. The morning was a great success and the school's Watch D.O.G.S calendar has been filled up through the end of the year!
