🎉 Huge Congratulations to Blaine Orr! 🎉

JAG–Arcadia Valley is thrilled to announce that our very own Blaine Orr has been voted by his Central Region peers as the new Central Region Representative State Officer!

This role holds a special place in our hearts at AV because it has been passed down from incredible friends and leaders. Our own Jyllian Torres held this position during her junior year before moving up to State Vice President the following year. The current officer in the role, Damien Gunter from Brookfield School District, became friends with Blaine during NCDC last year in Indiana. With some gentle guidance and encouragement from us specialists, Damien ran for office and was elected—and this year, he returned the favor, inspiring Blaine to follow the same path.

At this year’s CDC, Blaine was officially announced as the new Central Region Representative—a truly full-circle moment! We are so proud of our students who continue to show growth, maturity, and determination in pursuing leadership roles. These positions are held to very high standards, and our students prove every day why educators pour into the future of youth—because shaping leaders today helps build a stronger society tomorrow.

Thank you, Jyllian Torres and Damien Gunter, for showing what’s possible and inspiring future students to dream big.

Blaine, congratulations on this incredible achievement! Know that AV–JAG is behind you every step of the way as you take on this new journey.

JAG–Arcadia Valley would like to give a big shoutout to our Central Region JAG family who placed at CDC and will be advancing to NCDC in Salt Lake City, Utah!

We are proud of each of you and know you will represent JAG–Missouri and your school districts with pride, integrity, and excellence. We’re cheering you on and wish you the best of luck at Nationals!

We are incredibly proud of the students who represented Arcadia Valley JAG at the CDC competition! Faith Russell, Kaylee Tripp, Audrey Hall, Emily Deak, Emerson Welch, and Blaine Orr put in a tremendous amount of hard work preparing for their events.

While we didn’t place in the top three this time, these students showed incredible grit, determination, and talent throughout the competition. They represented Arcadia Valley, JAG, and themselves with outstanding sportsmanship and pride.

Congratulations as well to Audrey Hall for winning the Door Prize at the Career Expo during the event!

Great job to this group of young leaders—we are proud of the effort you put in and the way you represented our program!
