Jefferson Park at Dandridge has been blessed with angels this year.  Jefferson County High School’s service learning students have spent this year really giving back so much to our hard working Elders.  All the students went beyond volunteering with us…… they made friendships that will last a lifetime!  When asking Elder, Faye Sorrells, about what she thinks of JCHS Students, she replied, “Lord, I wonder if any of the students realize what they have given us. Each day they come in and make us smile, even on the days our old bones hurt. They will and have already made a difference! Oh and that Sock Hop…well I danced the evening away with some pretty handsome young men!” I think Faye summed it up! Keep an eye on this group of young individuals because they will do big things to come. Also, a special thanks to Service Learning Teacher Mrs. O’connor.  She does so much for us and we appreciate her!
