I apologize. The flyer I shared out yesterday regarding the United States Merchant Marine Academy did not have the zoom link. It is now attached below. I wouls encourage all to sit in on this even if you are not sure you want to go to one of the military academies, because you will hear some information from two amazing JHS alumni!
The United States Merchant Marine Academy is interested in connecting with Oklahoma City students, counselors, educators, and families. Please plan to join an upcoming zoom discussion where two of your very own,Oklahomans will share their experience as a midshipman at USMMA. We look forward to connecting with you.
Invitation is attached and the zoom link is here: https://zoom.us/j/96186406762?pwd=ZDQ0NzlQd1U0MStOelAxVDJCVitBQT09
Can’t wait to SEA you!

Juniors: Jones High School is a member of the Oklahoma City Community Foundation Central Oklahoma Guidance Counselor Network. This allow Jones Students to be eligible for their many scholarships. They have a scholarship available for Juniors and Jones High School is guaranteed to receive one if eligible student applies. This scholarship is the New Opportunity Scholarship(NOS). I have attached flyer for this scholarship. You will need to go to OCCF.org/scholarships and create an account and then apply for this scholarship.
The two primary requirements are:
1) to be in top 50% of your class in GPA. If your GPA is 3.14 or above you are in top 50%.
2) Be a first generation college student. The OCCF has modified definition and the modified definition is below
First generation college students are students whose parents/grandparents did not go to college. (if parent or grandparent went one or two semesters but did not graduate, you will still be considered first generation)
First generation does not include siblings. Your siblings can be in college or went to college and you would still be considered first generation.
If you meet qualifications, I would highly encourage you to apply for this $3000.00 scholarship.
If you have any questions, see MR. Moses
