Ronnie Rodriguez, principal at Los Fresnos High School, started the concept in 2010 to let fifth grade students know to expect when they get to LFHS.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe want to expose our fifth graders to what high school is like before they get to middle school,\u201d Rodriguez said. \u201cWe have a lot to offer and these tours make it easier for them to make a decision to come here.\u201d<\/p>\n
The first fifth-grade group visiting in 2010 are now sophomores at LFHS.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s important for them to let them know what great programs we have here,\u201d Rodriguez said. \u201cThis gives them an opportunity to think about possible careers.\u201d<\/p>\n
The students are divided into six groups by a university name. Serving as guides were LFHS students in the Falcon Cabinet and in the \u201cReady, Set, Teach\u201d Program.<\/p>\n
