CALLING ALL WATCHDOGS...
The WB WatchDOGS will begin their 2025/2026 year with a kickoff event on September 15th at 6:30pm.  The event will be held at 2408 Oakland Ave, Nashville, TN 37204.
If you are a dad/step-dad/male caregiver of a WB student and you want to join this incredible pack of rolemodels, check out the info below!  Got questions? Reach out to watchdogswb@gmail.com or click HERE to RSVP for the kickoff event.
WATCH D.O.G.S.® (Dads Of Great Students) is an innovative father involvement program offered by the National Center for Fathering.  This program focuses on safety and education by using the positive influence of fathers and father-figures for a two-fold purpose:  (1) to provide an unobtrusive fathering presence, and (2) to provide a positive and active role-model for students at the school.  Fathers, stepfathers, grandfathers and uncles are asked to spend at least one day at their student's school volunteering.  They will support the school through monitoring the school entrance, assisting with unloading and loading of buses and cars, monitoring the lunch room, or helping in the classroom with a teacher's guidance either working one-on-one or in small groups. Today thousands of school programs world-wide participate in WATCH D.O.G.S.® helping to engage men, inspire children, reduce bullying and enhance the educational environment at school.
UNICYCLE YOUR STUDENTS' CLOTHES! 
As the weather changes and you clean out your student's closets, remember that Waverly Belmont is a UniCycle school! UniCycle is school uniform recycling program that orchestrates the collection and redistribution of gently-used clothing to provide Standard School Attire (SSA) to Metro Schools students who need it. They collect “outgrown, not worn out” items and then distribute them to WB&MNPS students who are in need of SSA approved items!
There is a collection bin just inside the front door of the school waiting to receive your items. Volunteers collect the basket when full, and clothes are carefully screened, cleaned, organized and then sent home to students in need, per request of the HERO staff or other MNPS personnel. This is an amazing way to help other students by passing along cothing items with life left in them!
Also, a quick reminder to have your student check the school Lost and Found for items they may have left behind.  Unclaimed lost-and-found items do make their way to the Unicycle closet if they are not claimed.
