🏃‍♂️🎉 Field Day is Almost Here – We Still Need a Few WatchDOGs!

Field Day is this Friday, March 6, and thank you to everyone who has already signed up to help with gate coverage. Your support truly makes a difference.

We still have a few open spots in the early morning, especially between 8:15–9:45 a.m. If you can give even 30 minutes, we would love to have you join us.

Watch D.O.G.S. volunteers will be stationed at the side front gate to:

✔ Help ensure all guests enter through the designated gate
✔ Verify Fast Pass or visitor passes
✔ Help ensure students do not exit through the gate while it is open

Activity stations are already covered, and teachers will manage student flow. This is simply an added layer of campus support during a busy event.

Thank you for always stepping up to support Cole Elementary. 🐾

🐾 Celebrating a Watch D.O.G.S. Hero 🐾

We are proud to celebrate and congratulate Mr. John Gomez, a Watch D.O.G.S. volunteer from Ott Elementary, for his outstanding service and heroic actions while supporting students on his campus.

While volunteering in the cafeteria, Mr. Gomez quickly and calmly responded to a medical emergency and performed the Heimlich maneuver on a student in distress. His swift action and steady presence made a life saving difference.

Because of his courage and commitment to students, Mr. Gomez was recognized by the Northside ISD Board of Trustees with the NISD Citizenship Award, a well deserved and meaningful honor.

Although he serves at a different campus, Mr. Gomez represents the heart of the Watch D.O.G.S. mission we all share. Showing up, being present, and stepping in when it matters most.

Congratulations, Mr. Gomez. Thank you for representing Watch D.O.G.S. so well. We are proud to call you a brother in this mission 🐾❤️
