- Develop Leadership Skills: Enhance your skills in communication, organization, and community building.
- Be Part of a Supportive Network: Connect with like-minded fathers who share your commitment to making a positive impact.
What We’re Looking For:
We need passionate, motivated fathers who are:
- Committed: Willing to invest time and energy into leading and participating in All Pro Dad events and activities.
- Inspirational: Eager to share their experiences, encourage others, and be a role model for positive fatherhood.

PARENTVUE/PARENTSQUARE
We have three different platforms that help you partner with us to support your student. ParentVue gives you access to your student's grades, attendance, course history, and more. ParentSquare is a communication platform designed to keep parents and guardians informed. Finally, My Payments Plus (MPP) is the resource used for student meal accounts, registering and paying for student activities, making donations to the school, and more.
All of these tools have web and app versions. Due to the transition from Parent Portal to ParentVue, some parents are having difficulties logging in. Please click here for a help guide to log into ParentVue. Still have questions? Email for help.
