Students at Luther Nick Jeralds Middle School (LNJMS) have been recognized for their outstanding exploration of fundamental concepts in cosmetology and barbering. The students honed their skills through the Cosmetology & Barbering module offered by Paxton-Patterson College & Career Ready Labs.

To qualify for recognition, students completed 10 Cosmetology & Barbering modules, participated in Esthetician Professional Development provided through the Dream Job Webinar Series by Rubin Education, attended the CTE Career Fair and provided five in-person services to clients while exemplifying professionalism.
The awards ceremony concluded with CCS Superintendent Dr. Marvin Connelly, Jr., encouraging students to continue striving for excellence in their educational and career pursuits. Dr. Connelly expressed his admiration for the students' achievements.
