It was standing room only when Former Sheriff Nat Glover visited
Henry F. Kite Elementary for Dads n' Donuts.
"Dads n' Donuts is an opportunity for us to bring our students' fathers, uncles, brothers or any other significant male role model together so they can talk amongst themselves as well as listen to a significant leader in the community," said Principal Deidra Johnson.
During the breakfast, Glover discussed how important a parent's role is in his/her child's life and education.
“Parents often have to learn the job of parenting while they are on the job,” he said. “How you parent will determine how that young person you are caring for will develop.”
He encouraged parents to "step up" and have a renewed commitment to be a loving, caring and giving parent.
"Spend time with your children. If you have a child, your child should be your priority and responsibility."
Also joining Sheriff Nat Glover was another leader in education, Duval County Public Schools' Deputy Superintendent Pat Willis.
