MAGNET MANIA & MORE SCHOOL CHOICE EXPO @ THE JACKSONVILLE FAIRGROUNDS January 10, 11am - 3pm.
"Magnet Mania & More is the biggest event on the magnet calendar. This showcase of all magnet programs and other school choice options gives parents and students the chance to speak with school representatives and collect information about their school choices. This year, other types of school options, such as charter schools, career academies and special academic programs, will also be represented.
In addition, you also have an opportunity to speak with magnet office staff and transportation officials, win prizes and enjoy performances by magnet students. Magnet Mania & More is a spectacular introduction to magnet programs and other school choice options as well as a great refresher for those families seeking new information."
***I recommend going if you're interested in enrolling your kids into the magnet program, and get there early! I arrived about an hour or so into it last year and was very surprised by the turnout. It was packed. AND, study the catalog (click on the link) and pick out a few schools ahead of time otherwise you'll be overwhelmed.
