This week Julia Landon was excited to host the annual Duval County Oral Spelling Bee! Contestants from throughout the county came to our campus to be a part of this tremendous event. I was amazed with each of the students who participated!
We continued a good number of recruiting activities this past week. We were excited to speak at the Awards Assesmbly at Holiday Hill Elementary. What a great group of 5th graders they have at their school!
We were also excited about the students who came on our tour this past Thursday! Due to the Spelling Bee, we had to do our program overview in the gymnasium. The students and parents seemed to enjoy this venue. After the tours we even had some students who decided to shoot some hoops and see what it is like to play ball in a middle school gym!
We have two more evening tours left. They are at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday, February 14th and Thursday, February 21st. Anyone who has not already checked out our new program is invited to come see what our new dedicated magnet program is all about!
On Thursday, February 14th I will be posting a new question for my blog. This week it will have to do with the types of clubs and extracurricular activities which students would like at the middle school level. Be sure to log back in on Thursday to cast your vote!
