Tonight’s Parent Academy hit a little closer to home. I loved watching Eric and our soon to be junior talk college, careers, and future plans while I quietly wondered how we got here so fast? She’s such an amazing daughter, and he’s an incredible dad! And as both an employee and a parent, I’m thankful for Orange County Public Schools and Parent Academy for providing resources that help families navigate these exciting (and slightly terrifying!) milestones. @OCPSnews @CSO_OCPS

What an amazing morning at Maxey Elementary’s All Pro Dad meeting! Standing room only! Excited to see fathers investing in their children and strengthening our school community. Even more exciting, a dedicated father has stepped up to serve as captain and lead future meetings. 💙 #AllProDad #FamilyEngagement #MaxeyElementary @AllProDad @fladjj @CSO_OCPS

Nothing better than starting the day at @LockhartesO with an @AllProDad Morning Meeting. Today’s lesson: patience- Not always easy, but always worth it. ⏳It’s not just waiting—it’s how we act while we wait. That’s what our kids remember. #AllProDads #LeadByExample @CSO_OCPS @fladjj
