With First lady Michelle Obama winging her way to Georgia, “Coach” Betty Jackson of Atlanta’s Burgess-Peterson Academy prepped for her visit the only way she knew how: By ordering fruit and vegetable snacks that the students will eat next week.

“I’m honored,” Jackson said. “It’s exciting she knows about me and Burgess-Peterson Academy. It says what I’m doing for the children is actually working.”

Timeline of the First Lady’s Atlanta Visit:

12:55 p.m. — First lady Michelle Obama’s plane has reportedly landed at Dobbins.

1:10 p.m. — Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed and Sen. Johnny Isakson, among other dignitaries, are at Atlanta’s Burgess-Peterson Academy to greet First lady Michelle Obama. The White House, however, will not allow the press to see the first lady’s arrival and greeting. We’re being taken to a second-grade classroom, which will be Obama’s first stop.

1:35 p.m. — Michelle Obama arrives at Megan Kiser’s classroom at Atlanta’s Burgess-Peterson Academy, having been greeted by two of Kiser’s second-graders bearing a blueberry-laden fruit basket.

1:45 p.m. — The first lady is eating blueberries with the kids. It’s their snack of the day.

2 p.m. — Is now visiting with a kindergarten class, which is closed to the press. The second-graders she just visited practically tripped over each other to give her a hug, which she dispensed freely. She said President Obama loves to snack on figs. And that the kids need to read a lot and work really hard if they, too, want to be president.

2:15 p.m. — Michelle Obama just finished visiting the school’s organic garden, asking students what was growing (collard greens, potato, bok choy) and how they kept it growing (rain barrels).

2:20 p.m. — Has now left Burgess-Peterson Academy in Atlanta, and is headed to Alpharetta for a speech later this afternoon.
