Pirate Aubrey represented Jackson Area Career Center in the Principles of Marketing competition in Atlanta, GA this week. This is comprised of a comprehensive business administration exam and a role play scenario based presentation.
🏆Aubrey outperformed all other competitors in the exam portion and received a high exam score achievement medal.🏅 She was called up on stage in front of approximately 30,000 of her peers to receive this honor at the Mercedez Benz Stadium (what an experience!!🤩).
Although she didn’t proceed into the final round of the competition, she should be incredibly proud of her accomplishment! She’s already pumped and ready for DECA next year!
We are so PROUD of YOU, Aubrey!!!! 🏴☠️

Caitlyn Briggs, Jocelyn Gamez, Myla Hasegawa, Ethan Hays, Tyler Nall, Lucas Rowley, Cade Rugg, and Jenna Yob teamed up with People for the Parks and Trails and Grow Jackson to help revitalize the garden beds at the Martin Luther King Jr. Recreation Center.
In just a short window, these leaders tackled weeding and mulching to help support local food access and keep our public spaces beautiful. Way to show what leadership and service look like in action!

Even YOU have time... GO PIRATES!
The Division C/D competition included 116 top-performing students who qualified for the state championship. Napoleon’s top performers demonstrated strong results, with three students finishing in the top 30 based on preliminary round statistics:
Ethan Hays — 21st
Braylon Nykamp — 24th
James Purdue — 30th
The team’s 11th-place finish was a collective effort from the entire traveling squad: Blake Fish, Dein Fry, Ethan Hays, Griffin Keith, Logan Kish, Ryder McCloe, Braylon Nykamp, Trenton Pruitt, James Purdue, and Troy Styron.
This performance places Napoleon among the top Division C/D programs for the 2025–2026 season. The team represented the school with distinction on the state stage at Michigan State University.
