Amazing! 👏 At Southwood High School in Louisiana, frequent fights led to dozens of student arrests in just two days. That’s when a group of fathers decided to take action in a way no one expected.
Nearly 40 dads, uncles, and mentors formed Dads on Duty, showing up at the school each day to welcome students with jokes, encouragement, and a steady presence. Their goal is simple: to make sure every child feels safe, seen, and supported.
Since they arrived, fights have almost disappeared. Students say the school feels happier, calmer, and more connected. Proof that when adults show up with love and consistency, it can transform an entire community. 💙❤️
