Arlington Elementary School's
Safety Patrols Meet Hillary Clinton in a Chance
Encounter
 In
June, safety patrols from Duval County schools embarked
on a trip to our nation’s Capital to soak up the sights
and sounds and to celebrate their successes after a year
of hard work. The Jacksonville Safety Patrol trip was
sponsored by the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office, and
supplemented by funds raised through individual school’s
safety patrol fundraising campaigns. While in
Washington, several safety patrols from Arlington
Elementary School had the rare opportunity to meet
former First Lady, current New York Senator, and
Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton. While attending a
ceremony at the Marine Corps War Memorial, one of the
chaperones waded through the massive crowd when she
noticed Senator Clinton and asked her to take a picture
with the students. The chaperone was successful! Senator
Clinton took the time to meet the Arlington Elementary
students and pose for a photograph with them. This is
one chance encounter, which the students will never
forget! |
