On Thursday, September 18, 2025, Warrensville Heights City Schools hosted the annual Father’s Walk, welcoming more than 600 fathers who came out to show their support for students.

The event highlighted the powerful influence fathers have on their children’s growth and success. Research shows that active and engaged fathers boost their children’s cognitive and emotional development, helping them become more curious and better problem solvers. Involved fathers also model resilience, support emotional intelligence, and provide a strong foundation for healthy emotional growth.
