Meet our first JAGTN Outstanding Student, Jordan Worley from Creek Wood High School! Her teacher, Jodie Orman, remarks, “Jordan plans to attend MTSU in the fall pursing a degree in forensic science.

She is always ready to help tackle anything I give her to do.” Read on to see how JAG has impacted Jordan and her plans for the future!

We're excited to share a new series with you highlighting Outstanding Students nominated from JAGTN programs across the state!

We had such a great time last week at our State Career Development Conference! In this installment of The Latest, read all about the fun and competition, see who took home the hardware, and check out our gallery of photos from the week!

We are still reeling from all the excitement from last week's Career Development Conference! Our students from programs across the state had so much fun competing and making new friends. A huge thank you to our keynote speaker, Dr. Ryan Jackson for his inspiring and motivational words! Stay tuned this week for all the details on the winners and highlights from the week!

What a great idea for a community service project! A good time was had at the Ripley High School JAGTN Kiddy Carnival for Pre-K through 5th graders. Over 120 kids played games, won prizes, and participated in a variety of competitions at the hands of Ripley High School students. In essence, the local kids had a ball, RHS students were able to complete their TN Promise community service hours, and the JAGTN students learned the mechanics of executing a successful event.

The wait is almost over - our JAG Tennessee State Career Development Conference is TOMORROW! We can't wait to see these students shine. Be sure to follow us on IG and FB stories throughout the conference for behind-the-scenes looks, Q and A's with students and teachers, and more!
