Jefferson West High School is accepting orders for the "Tiger Walk" to recognize alumni and supporters of the school. You can have your name inscribed on a brick and placed permanently on the Tiger Walk. The walk is in front of the main entrance of the High School. This project not only improves the appearance of our school building, but also improves drainage in that area. It's simple and here's how it works. INDIVIDUALS: This is an opportunity to honor your children, grandchildren, friends, or loved ones no longer with us, by having their name inscribed on a brick permanently placed on the Tiger Walk. The cost is $25.00 for each inscribed brick. CORPORATE SPONSORS: If you wish to become a corporate sponsor with your company's name place permanently on the Tiger Walk for public recognition of your support for Jefferson West High School, we suggest a $100.00 donation. USD 340 Jefferson West reserves the right to refuse inscriptions deemed inappropriate.
