About Watch D.O.G.S.
Watch D.O.G.S. (Dads of Great Students) is a national program with the goal of providing positive male role models for the students. When students see trusted adults showing up at school, it builds connection, confidence, and a stronger sense of community. Watch D.O.G.S. volunteers help our kids feel supported, encourage positive role models on campus, and strengthen the partnership between families and Lindsey.

Watch D.O.G.S Pro-Tip:
Birthdays are always a fun day to volunteer. You'll get to see all the fun things your child gets to participate in on his/her birthday!
Will you really spend a full day at school?
Yes! While volunteering a day is a sacrifice, you can be sure that being a Hero of the Hallway more than makes up for it.
