Exciting news from the Watch D.O.G.S. (Dads of Great Students) program!
This year, we hosted our "Drop Off with Dads" event at ALL seven elementary schools in the Greenwood Leflore Consolidated School District (GLCSD)! We're so proud of all the great dads and father figures that turned out. Four out of seven schools posted participation numbers more than DOUBLE last year's!
A special shoutout to Claudine Brown Elementary, which led the pack with over 90 dads joining in the fun. This incredible involvement not only boosts student motivation but also helps improve attendance—because when dads show up, kids are ready to conquer the day! Kudos to all the fathers and father figures who made this possible.

Delta Health Alliance’s WATCH D.O.G.S. Program Partners with Ole Miss Athletics Foundation for Unforgettable Day at the Pavilion
In a heartwarming display of community partnership, Ole Miss Men's Basketball, Ole Miss Athletics, and Ole Miss Athletics Foundation (OMAF) joined forces with Delta Health Alliance to bring over 150 participants from the Delta region to the Ole Miss campus for an unforgettable experience. Families from three cities—54 participants through Delta Health Alliance’s WATCH D.O.G.S. (Dads of Great Students) program in Leflore County, 30 participants from Leflore High School to include their girls’ high school basketball team, 21 participants from Leland to include the boys’ high school basketball team, and 50 from Hollandale—came together to witness the excitement of an Ole Miss basketball game. To top it all off, the 24th-ranked Rebels came out with the win…way to go Rebels!
This outing aligns with the mission of the WATCH D.O.G.S. program, which provides positive male role models for students and an extra set of eyes to improve school safety. Though WATCH D.O.G.S. is currently active only in Leflore County within the Delta, the event extended its core mission by connecting students and families across the region with enriching experiences beyond the classroom.
"Every time a young person witnesses something beyond their familiar world, their map of possibility expands," said Sheldon Morris, Senior Advisor for Delta Health Alliance. "These snapshots in time become anchors of hope, showing them not just what exists, but what they might become. This is why we must not only open doors, but help young eyes see through them."
The day highlighted the strength of collaboration and the profound impact that organizations can have when they come together to foster hope and create opportunities.
