MEETING Tomorrow's Leaders Today ...


On Saturday, January 10, 2009, it was reported that 7,000-8,000 excited children and their parents crowded into the Exhibition Hall of the Jacksonville Fair Grounds to experience Magnets and More. Parents were treated to smorgasbord of educational opportunity delights as they prepare to make enlightened school choice decisions for the coming year. Along with each Dreams Begin Here magnet school, Julia Landon College Prep and Leadership Development School was there to answer questions and welcome prospective students. In the photo, assistant principal Dr. Nekeshia Cummings is seen discussing our magnet theme with a group of parents. Behind Dr. Cummings is another group of parents watching a video presentation created by our students. From 11 A.M. until 3 P.M., membership team leaders and Student Ambassadors answered questions and distributed more than 900 pieces of print information as they demonstrated leadership by example.
