It’s not just the moms making things happen in Highland Park ISD—there’s a powerhouse network of dads raising funds, building community, and showing up in ways that make a lasting impact on our schools. 

In this episode of The Bubble Lounge, guest host Sean Jackson sits down with Ryan Scripps, President Emeritus of the Highland Park High School Dad’s Club, and Scott Trulock, current President of the Park Cities Dad’s Club, to pull back the curtain on the surprising world of organized father involvement. From clay shoots and poker tournaments to serving in cafeterias and working the morning carpool, these dads are making a difference both on and off campus.

You’ll hear how the Dad’s Club not only funds major teacher support—like the $200,000 raised at their annual Teachers’ Cup Tournament—but also creates everyday moments that show kids, especially boys, the value of engaged male role models. Whether you’re new to the neighborhood or a lifelong resident, this conversation will inspire you to see our schools through a new lens and maybe even grab a spot on the volunteer roster. Tune in to find out why the Dad’s Club has become a cornerstone of the Park Cities experience and how you can be part of this tradition.
