The Academies at Jonesboro High School Career Coach Program

We are excited to introduce our newest Career Coach...

Mrs. Kelli Merryman!

She will be in the HHS Academy and can't wait to continue serving our students in a new role.

One chapter has closed, but one beautiful chapter is just beginning 💐

One of our very own, Mrs. Mary Williams, was showered with hugs and love today as she embarks on a well-deserved retirement.

This Career Coach Program is only as strong as its coaches and you have undoubtedly provided unparalleled guidance, encouragement and support to every student and adult you have come in contact with, leaving an indelible mark on their lives.

Thank you for your unwavering dedication and 34 years of remarkable service! May your retirement be filled with joy, love and happiness, Mrs. Mary!
