Congrats to Jefferson High School grad Jasmine Matthews, recipient of the Rissler Sisters and South Jefferson Ruritan Club Scholarships from the Eastern West Virginia Community Foundation! At JHS, Jasmine was an outstanding student-athlete who excelled in volleyball, track, and the Black Student Association. Now she’s headed to Muskingum University to study Biology/Pre-Vet and become an emergency or exotic veterinarian. Jasmine is one of eight JHS students and seven Washington High School students to receive these prestigious scholarships from the Eastern WV Community Foundation. We’re so proud of all our scholarship winners!

🌍 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! 😋
