Second Week of Tours Continues!

WOW!  Another great day of magnet recruitment tours today!  I met some great students from J. Allen Axson, Jax Beach, San Mateo, Holiday Hill, Hendricks Avenue and several private schools.  You all seem to be so excited about middle school!

I will note that seeing the locker rooms, cafeteria and gym seem to be really important to the students who I spoke with today.  Although, I will note that parents seemed more interested in the classrooms during the tours.  I hope that everyone saw all that they needed to see!  If for some reason you are reading my blog and still have questions make sure that you call the school and talk to Mr. Hafner ('The Bald Guy")!  He will be happy to help you out!

I also found that you enjoyed meeting our student ambassadors!   Aren't the students at Julia Landon FABULOUS!  I hope they were able to fill you in on all the really important details about being a middle school student!

As always, thanks for coming on the tour today!  Also, thanks for checking my blog!  If you get a chance make sure that you vote in the poll question for the week - you can find it off on the left hand side of my blog!  You may want to check out some of the other polls I have posted - they are all listed down the left side of the blog.  Also, I do a new blog post and question each week on Thursday evening, so be sure to check back throughout January and February on all of Julia Landon's recruitment activities!

Good luck finding a middle school!  Duval County Public Schools has lots of great options - make sure you check them all out!
