Our students learned about opportunities to further their education, programs offered, and facilities available to students. Their tour also included information on the admissions process, overall campus life, financial aid, scholarships, and extracurricular opportunities. We want to encourage all students at MNJHS to reach their goals by pursuing higher education after high school. #pantherpride

Quinton Hadlock – 9TH GRADE

Mt. Nebo Jr. High School

Quinton Hadlock, a 9th grade student at Mt. Nebo Jr. High, has been nominated to receive the Payson City Mayor’s Award for the month of October. Quinton is a positive example at MNJHS.  We couldn't be more proud to have Quinton receive this award from the Payson City Council.

Here's what some of Quinton's teachers had to say about him:

Quinton Hadlock is an outstanding Student.  He maintains high grades and achievement.  Even in Honors courses.  He is also an outstanding example and regarded highly by his peers.  

Quinton is an active member of the HOPE Squad in his 3rd year.  He is continually assisting other students and directing them to see the counselors when they it is needed.

Recently in a poll among the students in our school he received the most votes as a student others can talk to who cares about his fellow students.  

We have seen examples of his service and kindness to others during his few years at MT. Nebo Jr. High. Time and again he is helpful to students who need a good mentor.

Congratulations Quinton!
