JAJHS students participated in our annual Veterans Day Assembly to learn about The Spirit of Service and the sacrifices made by our nation's veterans. Our guest speaker was Lt. Col. Jody Schweickart, who has served in the US Air Force and currently serves as a liaison between the US Air National Guard and the US Space Force. Lt. Col. Schweichart discussed how The Spirit of Service has applied to her life and family. #BetterEveryDay

JAJHS students have spent time preparing for Veterans Day by honoring relatives on our Wall of Honor and learning about the Honor Flight program during Advisory. Students are invited to wear red, white, and blue this Friday for our assembly. #BetterEveryDay
