Fathers programs embody the answer to being a man in the twenty-first century...What is a Fathers program? A visible commitment is the first step in creating a respectable fathers program. Perhaps the biggest misconception about a program for fathers is that its intended audience is only the students or the children. Role modeling and setting examples are also program goals intended to reach other fathers and families...the program is centered around communicating overall family values. 2007: Pacers Sports & Entertainment's, " Indiana Heroes." 2007: DADS Inc.

It is impossible to protect those with poor skills and limited knowledge from the consequences of their academic under performance..... They live in a world in which people will be sorted on the basis of their literacy and numeracy. Low test scores as early as third grade, are a flashing yellow light : they warn the students, their families, and their schools that more effort is needed. A high school senior with the reading comprehension of an eighth-grader is a student facing a bleak economic future. That is a reality our society has been ignoring for too many years. - Abigail Thernstrom |
