Congratulations to students from Paxon School for Advanced Studies, who have earned today’s Team Duval Shoutout for exemplifying a commitment to civic engagement, leadership, and community service. To commemorate the 25th anniversary of 9/11, students presented Letters of Gratitude to local first responders at the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office Substation 5, and the Jacksonville Fire and Rescue Department Station 17. The initiative provided students with an opportunity to express appreciation for the sacrifices and contributions made by public safety professionals each day. Way to go, Paxon students, for this meaningful act of gratitude and remembrance!
