The “Student / Athlete of the Week” Award for the week of September 22-29 has been selected. The award, which is sponsored by the Jackson Parish Hospital, recognizes an outstanding student/athlete chosen by select members of the faculty and staff from each of the three Jackson Parish School District high schools. 

The honorees are chosen for best exemplifying what it means to be a true student-athlete through academic achievement and athletic accomplishment. Each recipient is recognized by the Jackson Parish Hospital through social media and receives a special commemorative shirt.

Earning accolades this week are Malachi Harris, who is in the 8th grade at Weston High School, Quitman High School 8th grader, Eli Jackson and  Jonesboro-Hodge High School freshman, Lakayla McGuire
