The event was observed at 163 schools in Cuyahoga County, 52 schools in Summit County and 9 schools in Portage County. The event was sponsored and promoted by numerous school districts, and both public and private community based agencies, in a hugely successful grassroots collaboration.
Fathers and other male mentors were encouraged to to take their kids to school on this date and throughout the school year! Please support the thousands of fathers, uncles, grandfathers, stepfathers, foster fathers, brothers and mentors that step up to support the education of children in their lives.
