Pullen Watch D.O.G.S. Hold Epic Pizza Night Kickoff Event

(ROCKWALL, TX — September 25, 2019) A night of pizza and fun was had by Dads and their kiddos on Thursday, Sept. 19 at Pullen Elementary! Pullen Elementary’s Watch D.O.G.S. (Dads Of Great Students) program started off their year with an incredible Annual Pizza Night Kickoff event. The Annual event is a favorite as Dads, Grandpas, Step-Dads, and male role models, join their students for a night of pizza and then have an opportunity to put their name on a large calendar volunteering to serve for at least one day out of the entire school year to be at Pullen Elementary.

Watch D.O.G.S (Dads Of Great Students) is a nationally known non-profit organization founded in 1998 shortly after the Jonesboro, Arkansas school shooting. With a focus on providing an additional layer of security for schools, Watch D.O.G.S. has found great success in also helping to ease the issue of fatherlessness. The program focuses on providing male involvement (in a mainly female environment) in the school with opportunities to mentor students, to help teachers, to help secure the school, and to be available and involved with the students while they serve. Incredibly, schools from around the nation that have more male involvement have seen attendance, grades, & graduation rates increase.

Pullen Elementary’s Pizza Night Kickoff was a huge success! Our most successful yet. Because of this event, over 80% of the school year, will have Watch D.O.G.S. present at Pullen Elementary. Additional signups will take place with a goal to have DOGS on campus every day of the school year. We would like to especially thank the Rockwall Community for their continued support. Special thanks goes to Pizza Hut, Walmart, Kroger, Tom Thumb, & Domino’s for their gracious support of food, drinks, and plates. As well, a raffle was held for Dads that signed up to serve. Special thanks goes to Speedy Bee Express Car Wash, Target, Best Buy, and Lorien Lane Designs for their gracious generosity of raffle items that helped to fill Pullen’s Watch D.O.G.S. calendar. Lastly, sponsorships from Warehouse Pro and SS Electric, are helping to make this year’s Watch D.O.G.S. program one of the best yet and Pullen Elementary is incredibly grateful!
