The eagle has landed at William James Middle School. On Friday, as part of Georgia Southern University’s inaugural Eagle Nation in Education contest, a decorative, student-designed eagle sculpture was permanently installed on the school’s front lawn. The 6-foot-tall fiberglass bird, emblazoned with the colors of the American flag and featuring a pair Statesboro landmarks, was placed near the school entrance, where it will welcome visitors indefinitely.
