Since she talks alot about missing her public school friends, I figured it might be a local high school team.
A preliminary search of high schools with the mascot “Eagles” turned up CROWLEY HIGH SCHOOL. This is located in Crowley, TX, only 56 minutes from Dallas, TX.
Now, Jules also mentioned going to see the Body Worlds exhibit. There is one playing in Dallas, TX. This is definitely within driving distance of Crowley. Considering the conspicuous name of the town as well, this is probably where Jules lives.
Now, the address of Crowley High School is:
1005 W Main St
Crowley, TX 76036
This isn't Jules's house, but perhaps if you hang out by the track field for a couple days, she'll show up. It's worth a try until Taylor can do more background checking for you!
Good Luck!

Way to go, Physphile, you did a great job. So far this is probably our best bet.

You do have a point, chowdog, my high school's mascot is the Eagle, and I live south of Waco. Heck one of my school's rivals had a mascot that was an Eagle and they're about 30miles southwest.
I don't mind being called by my username, but I wish for you to call me by my true name Eagle Who Flies On Golden Wings.

There are alot of threads in here, and in the 'New Girl' section regarding Jules and Bree.
Plus, alot of the 'religion' is already researched, and I woudn't want you to waste alot of time digging up stuff that's already been dug up.
It's true the Crowley theme has already been researched in depth, but not in connection with a "New Girl", who possibly lives in a town called "Crowley" Texas. I agree the old research shouldn't have to be recapitulated. It would be nice if one of the Mods could dig up some of the older threads regarding Crowley and link them here.
You made a wise choice, Bree.
There's no place like home.

everyone on page one that is, is suspiciously absent in this thread 'cept fer considdy. (<3 mah considdy!)
Just teasing the suspicious peoples
Anyway, as for crowley TX. It would be preetttyyyy obvious, possibly conspicuous, of the Order to base the bloody ceremony in Crowley. Bree wasn't from any conspicuously named town, was she?
But I can totally see how we'd all be ready to jump on this. It's definitely interesting.

But what about her diet?
If you've done something right, people won't know you've done anything at all.
The 'Lady Eagles' is also the name of the University of North Texas women's teams, I think. The university is in the Dallas/Forth Worth area.
Edit: to add, Bree, the Jeff Corwin Experience show that she was talking about is TODAY, Friday, at 5pm. Jules might be out and about, probably near the UNT sports facilities, at that time. Go find her! (hmm, i guess, with the time change from California, that's about now?)
the 'Lady' part of that mascot name is tricky. I'm in college now and we always refer to the women teams as "Lady" ______.
The mascot could just be the Eagles, while Lady can refer to the female track team alone.
I think the research has been really well done though! There has to be a connection between Crowley, TX and Crowley - I think you found the right place!
" LOVE the Jeff Corwin Experience. is that lame??? it's so cool! this week he is doing a show about the horned viper and the cobra of morocco. UNFORTUNATELY i'm going to have to miss it. i've got somewhere to be"
She must've tracked the T.V schedule and figured out the time. WHY DIDN'T WE THINK OF THAT!
If you've done something right, people won't know you've done anything at all.
Errr/...... I did think of that... and I posted on the comments board 2 hours and a half beore it happened, you can check it out... Now... please let me direct your attention to a new thread I started. Jules' real location is Zavalla TX, but we AAAAAAAAALLL have see this place before.. please go to this thread:
