Jacksonville Heads Back to School
Wednesday August 6, 2008
Are the kiddies getting stir crazy? Are they driving you crazy? Not to worry-school starts back in less than two weeks in Duval County.
This year, new language programs help make your kindergartener bilingual before he hits fifth grade and introduce your teen to language, culture and business practices in Portugal. Another program, Safe Students in Schools, connects troubled students and families with dozens of community resources. And Duval County Public Schools Superintendent Ed Pratt-Dannals and his team kick off a strategic plan to ensure all students graduate with a competitive edge in the job market.
