"WatchDOG Dads":
What started 10 years ago with two dads spending time in their children's school has blossomed into an 800-school program in 30 states. From urban to rural areas, public to private schools, the fathers take a day off from work and spend it at school. Educators say the organization has made a real difference ? and not just in the lives of the children, but in the lives of their dads, as well. ABC's Erin Hayes reports for the first story in our series "Spirit of America."
And on our "World News webcast", along with our top headlines":
