Nine JAG AZ Students Awarded Kenneth M. Smith Scholarship

The Kenneth M. Smith Scholarship was established in 2009 by the Board of Jobs for America’s Graduates to recognize the President and CEO of JAG and his decades-long leadership and service. Every year, high school seniors across the nation apply for this prestigious scholarship. Arizona scholarship recipients this year will be receiving $2,000 each to help pay for postsecondary expenses. 

We are proud to announce that nine of our wonderful JAG Arizona student leaders were awarded this scholarship for their postsecondary 2022-2023 degree, apprenticeship, and certification plans.
