She will graduate with an Associates of Art and Science in May, and has been accepted into Tarleton State University. She plans to start a career in Special Education with a focus on the Elementary level.
"Jessica is one of the most mature, hard-working students at Eastland ISD," Mr. Wilhelm noted. "As a student or an aide, she always brings her best."
Kevin has been a member of the Varsity Mavericks Football team and Basketball team for two years, the EHS Band for all four years, and the EHS Jazz band for three years.
