Welcome to the Sherwood Elementary Watch D.O.G.S. site!

The Basics

The process is simple: sign up for your day(s) below and include your child's name, grade and teacher's name. A few days prior to your chosen day, we will send you an email with your itinerary for the day, a list of helpful tips to make your day successful and a list of S.W.E. guidelines to follow. You will also receive a reminder from SignUpGenius.com.

We ask for 1 day per year, but you are welcome to do more if you wish. Note that some dates have been blocked out by the administration for testing, etc. 

Your day will typically consist of assisting with the morning car rider line, getting your picture taken with your child and making a guest appearance on the morning announcements, spending time in your child's classroom and eating lunch with your child, volunteering in other classrooms and grade levels throughout the school and assisting with dismissal at the end of the day.

Program Goals

The WATCH D.O.G.S. program brings hundreds of thousands of fathers, grandfathers, and father-figures into the classrooms and hallways of their children's schools, with two primary program goals:

• To provide positive male role models for the students, demonstrating by their presence that education is important
• To provide extra sets of eyes and ears to enhance school security and reduce bullying

We look forward to having you on campus and thanks for being a WatchDOG! If you have any questions or concerns, please e-mail Joshua Wojciechowski, joshuawojciechowski@ymail.com
