Jalynn’s activism, leadership and extracurriculars excel above and beyond many students. Jalynn took it upon herself to meet with her principal to discuss racial awareness and offer solutions to improve school awareness. She proposed the idea of a Black History in America class and drafted the curriculum for the subject matter.

Dylan is a tutor for elementary students emphasizing the importance of engineering and helping to create STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) based projects in the district’s elementary schools. The outcome was a 92.3% change in grades for the students which allowed a better understanding in applying math and science skills, according to his proclamation.
