Celebrate the Fathers Walk Thursday, September 19, 2024

Mark your calendars for an important event happening on Thursday, September 19, 2024! Akron Public Schools is excited to host its annual Fathers Walk, a special day that invites fathers, father figures, family members, and caregivers to walk or drive their children to school. This event is all about celebrating family involvement and showing support for the education of our children.

Why Participate?

Family engagement plays a huge role in a child’s academic success, and the Fathers Walk is a great opportunity for families to demonstrate their commitment to education. This event not only highlights the bond between family and school but also reinforces the message that education is a shared responsibility.

The Fathers Walk is an uplifting moment where families and schools come together to make every day count for students. By walking with your child to school, you’re showing them that their education is a top priority.

For more information, you can contact your child’s school or reach out to Student & Family Services at 330-761-2810.

We look forward to seeing you on this meaningful day—because when families and schools work together, our students achieve great things!

Let’s show our children the importance of education by walking side by side with them.
