Jefferson High School recently showcased an Appalachian Heritage display, featuring artifacts representing Indigenous, English, African, German, Irish, and French cultures. Since returning to school, students across the district have been studying Appalachian history and West Virginia culture. Appalachia spans 13 states, including all of West Virginia, and is known for its strong values of family, freedom, and self-reliance. At JCS, we're proud to celebrate the rich history and heritage of our region! 💙💛

🌍 Culinary adventure alert! Jefferson High School ProStart students recently cooked up a feast fit for foodies of all ages! During a visit to T.A. Lowery Elementary School, these budding chefs dazzled Mrs. Blue's first-grade class with a mouthwatering spread of international flavors from China, India, El Salvador, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Vietnam, and the Philippines. Students enjoyed sharing their knowledge of the different ingredients, tastes, and textures that made each dish unique as they sampled the diverse cuisine. Kudos to our ProStart team for spreading the joy of food, fostering a love of global fare, and serving up smiles one plate at a time! 😋
