The honorees for the “Student / Athlete of the Week” Award for the week of April 6-12 have been selected. The award, which is sponsored by the Jackson Parish Hospital, recognizes an outstanding student/athlete chosen from Jonesboro-Hodge, Quitman, and Weston High Schools who are chosen by select members of the faculty and staff of each institution. 

The selectees 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 Bryce Zehr, who is on the Weston High School baseball team, Ric’Kiya Bryant, a member of the Jonesboro-Hodge High School girls track team and Zach Smudricks of the Quitman High School baseball team.

Join the Jackson Parish Hospital and the Jackson Parish Journal as we congratulate and applaud these athletes for their dedication and achievements in the classroom and through their athletic endeavors!
