The following statement is from Dean Jetter, President of the John Jay Center Board of Trustees. "Three wonderful Jay County senior students were at the IVY Tech Marion Board meeting this morning. They shared how they have benefited from dual credits and what they hope to do in the future. They presented well. Thank you for the opportunities Jay County Schools gave to these three students. I was very proud to stand with them. "
