Benefits of Fathers Being Involved

While we can spout off a great deal of research showing direct connections between moms being involved in their child’s education, there are a number of benefits that are directly related to fathers being involved.

THEIR CHILDREN:   
•  Do better in school and enjoy it   
•  Half of their children get mostly “A”s as  compared to only a third when dads are not involved 
•  Half as likely to repeat a grade  
•  Much less likely to get suspended  
•  More likely to participate in extracurricular activities  
•  Are higher-performing, more responsible  adults  
•  More interested in exploring the world around  them   
•  Do better on standardized tests

THE MEN THEMSELVES:  
•  Are more involved at home  
•  Are more likely to visit museums, etc  
•  Feel more important in their child’s life

SCHOOLS BENEFIT  
•  With higher teacher morale  
•  Teacher’s get more family support  
•  Parents have a higher opinion of teachers  
•  Schools have better reputations in the  community
