  • Provide a centralized connection for fathers.

Membership Fees: There is no fee to belong to the Mustang DADS. For a $25 donation, members will receive a Mustang DAD shirt. 

Formal Meetings: There will be at least two formal meetings during the school year along with several volunteer opportunities. The meeting at the start of the year is to provide information and a forum for communication. The final meeting of the school year, officers for the next school year will be elected.

Informal Gatherings: There may be informal gatherings organized by Mustang DADS to facilitate community and growth opportunities for members.

Service: Mustang DADS’ primary objective is to advance, develop and support the JJ Pearce High School community.  We will provide group and individual service opportunities.  Some service opportunities will require a one-time commitment while others will require long-term commitments.  We hope that all members serve when opportunities arise that match the member’s availability, experience and giftedness.
