Dads Club

Welcome to the SJPII Dads Club

We are a friendly crew of dads who pitch in for the school, build community, and enjoy plenty of laughs along the way. If you are new, you are welcome. If you are a returning dad, bring someone with you. Our goal is simple. Show up, help out, and make school life better for students, families, faculty, and staff.

How to Get Involved

Weekly meetings
Join us every Thursday at 7:45 AM in the Eagle’s Nest. The Eagle’s Nest is inside the gym, upstairs to the left. Come right after drop-off for coffee, conversation, and a quick update on what is happening around campus.

Mailing list
Get reminders and event announcements by joining our email list. Sign up here.

Bring a friend
New dads and transfer families find their footing faster when they meet people early. If you know someone who has not come yet, invite them to the next meeting.

Annual Events and Activities

New and Transfer Parent Meet and Greet

At the start of the year, we host a Hawaiian-themed mixer so new families can meet each other and connect with faculty and staff. Expect hors d’oeuvres, light drinks, classic music, and a relaxed chance to make friends.

Student and Parent Guest Speakers

We help underwrite impactful speakers for students and parents. Recent years have included Stephen Hill from Speak Sobriety. These sessions give families practical tools and open the door to important conversations at home.

Sporting Event Happy Hours

Before select home games we open the Eagle’s Nest for a casual get-together. Parents, teachers, and administration drop in, and it becomes an easy way to build friendships around school spirit.

Homecoming Alumni Tailgate

You will find Dads Club at the bar and serving stations. Alumni, families, and students gather on campus for a day that brings generations together.

Faculty and Staff Gift Cards

Twice a year, at Thanksgiving and at the end of school, we provide a gift card to every faculty and staff member. It is a simple way to say thank you for the work they do all year.

Football Pool, Super Bowl Squares, and March Madness

Friendly competition that raises funds for our programs. It is organized, easy to join, and a fun way to stay connected during the season.

Table of Cheer

A popular raffle that features a complete set of essentials for a home bar, curated by our resident mixologists. It is a highlight at events and helps fund club efforts.

SJPII Sporting Clay Classic

Our largest fundraiser and an annual favorite at OK Shooting Sports. It is a well-run day outdoors that supports everything we do for the school.

Dads Club Cornhole Tournament

An afternoon of cornhole for parents, teachers, alumni, and future Eagles. Students enjoy a half day, lunch is provided, and the competition is friendly but spirited.

It’s a Wonderful Run 5K Breakfast

We prepare and serve breakfast for participants in the SJPII 5K. It is a feel-good morning that brings the community together.

Evening Socials

Monthly evening outings for dads and, at times, significant others. These are perfect for those who cannot make morning meetings and for anyone who wants another chance to connect.

End of Year Raft-Up

A family-friendly gathering on Lake Boca. Boats, sun, and plenty of splashing around to celebrate the year together.

Continuing Education Fund

We underwrite a fund that helps teachers pursue advanced degrees. Investing in faculty is a direct investment in our students.

Contact Info

If you have questions or ideas to share, feel free to reach out to John Mollica and Ray De Varona by email at dadsclub@sjpii.net but we would prefer for you to show up and introduce yourself at a Thursday meeting. We will help you get plugged in.
