(North Vernon, Ind.) - On Thursday, Milan JAG students traveled to North Vernon’s Education and Training Center to compete in the Regional Career Development Conference.

This group of students is made up of juniors and seniors, who are in the Jobs Across America program at Milan HS.

  • Shelby Williams- 1st in Public Speaking
  • Lydia Linville- 3rd in Employability Skills
  • Hunter Scudder- 3rd in Financial Literacy
  • Allison Doyle- 3rd in Critical Thinking
  • Ellana Jutzi- Outstanding Senior

Shelby Williams will move on to the State JAG CDC coming up on March 15 with public speaking.
