RPM Scholarships

In the 2006-2007 school year, RPM continued its committment to serving the students of Thomas Jefferson by establishing the 4 A's College Scholarships. That year we awarded eight scholarships to graduating Thomas Jefferson seniors, two in each of the 4 A's: ACADEMICS, ACTIVITIES, ATHLETICS and the ARTS.

This year we are contining that tradition, awarding students that have excelled in the 4 A's. Students, that because of their committment, have made Thomas Jefferson the great school that it is. We are looking for students who truly have a dream of pursuing further education, whether it is through a 2 or 4 year college, vocational or trade school. The desire to go further, not necessarily the GPA will help determine our recipients.

4 A's College Scholarship

In early 2007 RPM lost a wonderful woman - Debbie Jahns. Debbie was instrumental to the establishment of the Raider Parent Movement serving as treasurer as well as other key positions and finally secretary during her time in RPM. She was not only involved in RPM and Thomas Jefferson but active in Girl Scouts, her church and many other community activites. It was because of Debbie's can do attitude that the Debbie Jahns Memorial Scholarship was established.

The Debbie Jahns Memorial Scholarship is awarded to a senior who has shown, not only participation in one or more 4 A's -Academics, Athletics, Activities & Arts, but also in the community.
