Jaerya Jackson is a 14 year old freshman that goes to Waynesboro High School. She goes by two nicknames, Jay or JJ. She is one of my friends and I’ve known her since 4th grade from Boys & Girls club. JJ has 3 siblings: a younger sister, an older stepsister, and an older stepbrother. She also has a pet dog named Nipsey. Her absolute favorite food is pasta, particularly chicken alfredo with spinach.


JJ loves a variety of activities, including skating, basketball, and art. Additionally, cheers for the varsity basketball team. In her free time, she enjoys hanging out with her cousins and going to the high schools basketball games. 


In school she has a lot of friends and she is doing really well. Her favorite class is world geography because that is her favorite teacher. She mentions that he keeps the class entertaining. Her goal is to graduate school with an advanced diploma. In the end, she is interested in owning a restaurant like her father.
