Her favorite high school memory is when her sister graduated because it was a very sentimental moment and the start to a stronger sisterly bond.

Outside of school, Jewell enjoys going to work, spending time with family, and baking desserts for friends and family to enjoy. If she had one wish, it would be for all her loved ones to achieve every goal they set. The three words that best describe her are artistic, hard-working, and intimidating.

Three things on her bucket list are to travel, open a beauty salon, and keep in touch with her friends.
The person she admires most is her big sister. Nevaeh goes out of her way to show she cares about Jewell. When Nevaeh had premature twins, she stayed strong through their time in the hospital it showed her how far her sister is willing to go for the people she loves. The teacher that had the biggest impact on Jewell is her 8th grade Algebra teacher, Mrs. Dodson. Mrs. Dodson pushed Jewell to do the best she could, soon making her love math.
The thing Jewell will miss the most about Milan C-2 High School is hanging out with her friends and always having a good laugh. If there was one way she could be remembered at MHS, it would be as the white girl who speaks Spanish. The advice Jewell would give underclassmen is to stop trying to fit in and to stand out.

MAP Testing is quickly approaching. With that being said, we are trying to make this a positive experience for the students and are asking for your help! We would love for every student to have a positive/encouraging letter to read the day we start MAP testing just to give them a smile and positive thoughts before they test. If you know a 3rd or 4th grade student and would like to write them a letter please fill out the google form below. We will be able to print this and give it to the students the first morning of testing (April 23rd). This is a secret so please do not tell them. Please have this form filled out by Wednesday April 16th. Thank you so much for your support. We are excited to see the excitement these letters bring to the students. (If you do not know the child's homeroom teacher just click a name, we will make sure it gets to the correct teacher).
