Okay, so I am a bit late posting information to my blog tonight! We stayed late tonight answering questions from parents and students. After all the recruitment activities were over many of our new staff stayed to celebrate our last evening of recruitment! Wow - have we had a great time meeting so many amazing students during January and February!
I really enjoyed talking with the students and parents tonight! I had some great questions from students who currently attend Stockton Elementary and Holiday Hill. It appears students tonight were interested in what it was like to have lockers! In my group we talked about how students at Julia Landon will be able to go to their lockers at the start of school, before their lunch period, and before 6th period. We talked about the fact that students don't go to their locker after school, because we want to make sure that they are not late to their buses!
My group also had some discussion about the slushy machine in the cafeteria! Students continue to be excited about the snack bar line in the cafeteria! It seems that some of our prospective students are more interested in ice cream and pizza than choosing a well balanced meal from our hot lunch line!
I continue to be so appreciative of all the parents and students who have expressed an interest in our program at Julia Landon! I am so excited that we are creating a school that will encourage students to grow academically, while also developing their leadership skills. I continue to encourage parents to call us if they have any further questions! Also, don't forget to get those magnet applications in on time!!!
Have a great weekend!
