7. Titan Up Dad’s ! Studies show that a father's involvement at school has a positive impact on their child's academic achievements and social well-being. The Dad's club provides fathers the opportunity to spend more time with their children at school. We realize that Dad’s have busy work schedules so we will do our best to schedule events around normal working hours. We will be creating some fun filled events for our dad’s to experience with their kids, but right now we mainly need our dad’s to help us with heavy lifting during our already scheduled PTSA events. Grade Level Dances - need a Dad from each grade to lead the effort. Typically 3 or 4 Dads to help with Set Up prior to the dance, also potential help with chaperoning and possibly clean up afterward. 6 th : Oct 9; 7 th : March 5th; 8 th : May1st Red Ribbon Week Oct 27- 31ed 2-3 dads to help with decorations/banners/streamers" with taking down decoration 8th Grade Career Day, Feb. 19 th Beautification Day - work with the EPMS Outdoor Beautification Committee to meet at EPMS on Sat. or Sun. to do outdoor planting, spread mulch, and general spruce-up of the grounds.
