A part of Prince William County’s Fatherhood Initiative, the free Father & Daughter Dance is a signature event of the initiative. It’s hosted by the Department of Social Services.
“The Fatherhood Initiative is dedicated to equipping fathers with the resources and support they need to nurture healthy relationships with their children.

In a PWCS release, Cline said he’ll be using the money to purchase new games for his students. He also said he loves watching his students develop skills and gain confidence.
PWCS has an initiative in place, called “Inspiring Future Innovators: Today’s Students, Tomorrow’s Talent,” which aims to foster more interest and engagement in careers related to computer science.

The proposed resolution, presented at an upcoming board meeting, aims to allow the board to deliberate openly and determine the next steps for the controversial project.
