Fairfield High Preparatory School students rank in top 10 at National JAG Conference

Fairfield High Preparatory School students rank in top 10 at National JAG Conference
These three young ladies have something to smile about. The Fairfield High preparatory school students recently returned home from Dallas after ranking in the top 10 at the national Jag conference. Jack stands for jobs for Alabama graduates in the Jag program. We study the different careers that are available in our state. And we focus on enhancing our skills that we would need on that job. Fairfield is the only school system that offers Jag in Jefferson County. So what happened they want with their business plan model, They won first place and they were advised that they would be able to compete nationally. What the students created is very unique in fashion for our business plan. We created *** product that allows hat and cap wears to express themselves interchangeably creatively swiftly and that little or no cost, little cost to them because they have to buy the product. But um, what we made is we could, we connected *** magnetic patch. We sold *** magnetic patch onto *** decorative patch so that you can take on, put on and take off designs as you please. Most of the time when people try and decorate their caps, they have to sew *** patch on or use an iron on patch or maybe draw or paint on their hats. But we created *** product that allows them to take the design off easily and put it back on. The young ladies also say it was their first time flying and visiting Dallas. The memories they captured will last forever. We explored Dallas. Yes, we have massages. We met *** lot of great people were, you burned *** lot Because of all the donations that people gave to us. We got *** chance to experience different things and try new foods like we had clams and oysters and mussels and stuff like that. We never had that before. We wanted them to have just the whole experience because most kids, you know, never leave outside of Fairfield. So because they never leave out outside of Fairfield, we wanted them to have just, you know, an amazing time. So I'm just extremely proud. I've had these kids since they were in the sixth grade. Um, I'm their mother, mentor coach, pocketbooks, everything you name. You know, they're my babies and we love them. The plan to recruit new students into Fairfield's Jag program is already underway. I'm fred Davenport's WV tM 13. Okay. Mm hmm.
