STEP 2 · JOIN THE HUNT

🧭 What Is the GLA Rock Hunt?

Global Leadership Academy has hidden dozens of brightly painted GLA Rocks throughout Jacksonville neighborhoods and parks. Each one is a tiny piece of art — and an invitation to discover a school community that feels like family.

Every rock includes:

● A positive or inspirational message
● Hand-painted artwork inspired by our students
● A special QR code (that brought you here!)

Inspired by our students & staff

The hearts, spirals, leaves, and bright colors on each rock were designed by student and staff artists.
They reflect what matters most at GLA:

RESPONSIBILITY
You must solve the problems in your life that make themselves evident to you.

CURIOSITY
I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.
-Albert Einstein

DIVERSITY
How open are you to the unknown? 

SERVICE
Put aside your ego and focus on serving others.
