Rapoport Awesome Dads: Encouraging positive male role models to become more active in their students’ education

 

Rapoport Awesome Dads (RAD) is an initiative to encourage dads, uncles, brothers, and other positive male role models to become more active in their students’ education.  The presence and involvement of dads and other positive male role models protect children from many vulnerabilities. Engaged fathers, whether living in or outside of the home, help foster a child’s overall health and socio-emotional well-being.  Statistics reveal when fathers or father figures are engaged in their student’s education they are more likely to

  • Learn more.
  • Perform better in school.
  • Exhibit healthier behavior.
  • Have fewer discipline problems.
  • Participate in extracurricular activities.
  • Enjoy school more.

Rapoport Academy will provide programming and support to all their campuses by

  • Providing an opportunity for fathers and father figures to get engaged.
  • Providing a structured environment for father/student interaction.
  • Engaging fathers in their children’s education.
  • Building stronger bonds between father and child.
