Jefferson Awards

Hey Everyone! Here’s some information about Jefferson.

Jefferson is a nationally recognized award that is based on student’s impacts in their community. It is appealing to colleges and rewards their determination. The coordinators will select one person to win every month, so don’t worry if you don’t win the first time you apply!

Why would someone want to win Jefferson? It is appealing to colleges, recognizes your efforts, rewards your determination to better your community, and there are a variety of prizes that could be won.

How does somebody get nominated? You can give the person’s name and grade to Mr. Burrell or one of the student coordinators, Kailey Phillips, Kelli Gutierrez, and Jolie Lou. You can also email them at Kailey@phsservicelearning.org

How does somebody win? After you get nominated you will be interviewed. The winner is based on the impact you made, your personal connection with service, and how you grew from your experience. Just a reminder, Jefferson is not based on how many hours of service you do.
