It's official, all that lives in this house are stinky highschoolers. 😁😘 Taylor is now a freshman and Allie is showing her the ways as a junior. Also this year Allie is doing JTED for law enforcement and Jazmyn who is a senior this year but at her mom's is doing JTED for nursing. If you are unfamiliar JTED is a program through Pima Community College for high school kids that give them credits not just in high school but 6 college credits as well. It helps them get there foot in the door for the field they want to work right out of high-school. Super proud of these kids. Hoping for an amazing end and start to high school for them.
