Glen Allen High School

Message from Mr. Davenport, PrincipalI would like to congratulate everyone in this Senior Class. It’s been a long road, but

you made it and we are so proud of you! This year has not ended the way we

anticipated, but through it all this senior class has been an extraordinary group to

work with. You have created a culture of integrity, school pride, and good

citizenship. There have been so many fabulous moments where I was truly

impressed by the talent, the good choices, and the positive attitudes shown by the

members of this senior class.

Message from Ms. Bonner 12th Grade Administrator

I can’t believe the Class of 2020 is finally graduating, and getting ready to begin their next

chapter. It seems like just yesterday, with your room and bus number pinned to your shirt,

that you started Kindergarten. You are a group of young adults who have continuously

shown good character, empathy, and tremendous grit. We wish we could celebrate your

accomplishments in person, but please focus on the good. This “pause” has allowed us all to

realize what is important, and to make more of an effort to find the joy in life. We are so

proud of all that you have accomplished, and we cannot wait to hear about your future

success! Take pride in the fact that you have reached this milestone, and enjoy this time of

celebration! Once a Jaguar, always a Jaguar! One team, one heartbeat, one family!

kindness, curiosity, and wit. Haydn touched the lives of many in the

Glen Allen community, and this scholarship seeks to carry on his

positive impact on the lives of students and families. We are proud

to present this $1,000 award to Jaden Battle.

Reynolds Community College Board Scholarship

The generosity of the Reynolds Community College Board of Directors

make it possible for one student from each high school in the Reynolds

service region to receive a scholarship of $3,600 over the course of the

academic year. This year’s recipient embodies the heart of what

Reynolds is all about: hard work, resilience, and passion. The 2020

GRASP Last Dollar Scholarships

In the 2008-2009 school year, GRASP began complementing the

in-school advisor program by providing Last Dollar Scholarships.

Although GRASP advisors are often able to assemble a sizable

financial aid package for students, frequently other costs are not

covered by the financial aid package. The need for small, targeted

Last Dollar Scholarships became apparent, and through the

generosity of our foundation, business and personal donors these

scholarships became possible. The Last Dollar Scholarship of $1000

is awarded to De’Shawn Threatts!

GRASP Pathways Scholarship GRASP’s Community College Pathways Scholarship is awarded to a

student who will graduate with an Associate’s degree and transfer to a 4

year college to complete a Bachelor’s degree. This $1000 scholarship ,

renewable for a second year, is awarded to Joseph Whitlock!

The Truist Scholarship

The Truist Scholarship is part of the National

Merit Scholarship Corporation. Winners of

Special Scholarships are chosen based on their

academic accomplishments from a pool of

candidates who fulfilled the sponsor's criteria

and scored high on the 2018 PSAT/NMSQT®.

Congratulations, Katelyn Kasko, on

winning this prestigious scholarship!

GA5K ScholarshipFor four years, with help from the Glen Allen Ruritan Club, we have hosted

our Annual GA5K as part of Glen Allen Day. The GA5K has funded a

scholarship for a deserving Glen Allen senior chosen based on their

applications and creative responses describing what Glen Allen means to

them and how they plan to give back to this wonderful community. This

year's GA5K Scholarship recipient is Olivia Butler.

Richmond Times-Dispatch Scholar Athlete Award

Starlett Price and Zelgin JacksonThese two student-athletes will be featured in a

two-page spread in The Richmond Times-Dispatch.

They are Glen Allen’s Times Dispatch/Sports

Backers Scholar-Athletes of the Year nominees.

Congratulations!

HCPS Teacher ScholarEvery year the high school seniors who are accepted into Henrico

County Public Schools’ Teacher Scholars’ program will have

guaranteed teaching jobs waiting for them when they graduate

from college, as well as a $5,000 signing bonus. The program is a

homegrown way to address the need for teachers in content

areas where there aren’t enough qualified applicants. Our 2020

Glen Allen High School winner is Jordan Johnson!

Faculty Medallions The Glen Allen High School Faculty medallions are presented to members of the graduating

class who have made a difference in the success of our school. These are students who have

helped to make our school what it is today. Although each individual’s contributions differ,

their value does not and they have made a lasting impact and impression on the class, the

school, and the faculty.

Faculty Medallion- Sally MorrisonThis young lady is truly a ray of sunshine. She is so warm

and joyful, even in the most challenging or stressful

situations. People truly love being around her. She is also

incredibly tough, and when she commits to a task, she

always digs in and gives it 110%. She’s been a fixture on the

stage with the drama department, and it’s hard to imagine

BOTC without her next year. We can’t wait to celebrate all

your success at Virginia Tech! Congratulations, Sally

Morrison!

Faculty Medallion- Zelgin JacksonThe smile, that is always the first thing people think of when they

think of Zelgin Jackson. That beautiful, broad smile that imparts joy,

friendship, mischief and toughness. Zelgin was born to be an athlete.

With his distinct swagger through the halls, usually in his trademark

white “birks” to his movement on the basketball court and baseball

field, he came to symbolize what it meant to be an athlete at GAHS!

However, his abilities are not limited to sports, they mask what is a

searing intellect. Zelgin has an intelligence that makes his potential

limitless, especially when combined with his gregarious, enthusiastic

personality! Averett University has not only gained a great baseball

player, but a great human who will do the university proud.

Congratulations!

Faculty Medallion- Logan Anderson

This recipient is a leader in every sense of the word. She has

an innate love of learning, and her work ethic is unmatched.

She is a force of nature on the soccer field and a role model

to younger players. As a STEP mentor, she provides

boundless support and compassion to underclassmen. She

carries herself with grace and integrity, and she spreads

happiness and laughter wherever she goes. She is going to

be a superstar at the University of Richmond.

Congratulations, Logan Anderson!

Faculty Medallion- Andrew CardounelMost days up by 4-5 to go to the gym, then 10 hours at

school, then work till 10 or 11. This is a typical day for

Andrew Cardounel. Yet he takes advanced classes,

always has a smile, is ready to lend a hand or just make

your day better. He has a work ethic that is ingrained in

him by his family and his own desire to succeed. He is

dedicated, kind, loyal, hardworking and his enthusiasm is

infectious. Congratulations! University of Richmond will

be a better place with you there!

Faculty Medallion- Aliza SchwarzThis young lady is an excellent student, phenomenal

athlete, and extraordinary person. Whether she is on the

court, track or in the classroom, she always strives for her

best and motivates those around her. To her peers she is a

strong leader who was continuously voted to be the BOTC

sports captain throughout her high school career. She is

always positive and handles every situation with kindness

and a caring heart. We wish her all the best as she heads

off to attend VA Tech in the fall. Congratulations Aliza

Schwarz!

Faculty Medallion- Zion MossBalancing her bag for track practice, a full backpack and a 64 oz water

bottle is no easy feat, but this young woman does it effortlessly as she

climbs the stairs headed to the 200s hall, flashing a relaxed, self-assured

smile at anyone she passes. She makes it look easy, but underneath her

confidence is an unshakable foundation of faith, hard work and

dedication to a variety of ventures that make her an incredible asset to

Glen Allen High School. Whether she’s supporting the football team,

entertaining the crowd at halftime or flying around the track Zion Moss

selflessly uses her time and talents as an integral member of many

organizations. In the classroom she gets down to business, but always

makes time to help those around her including the patient guidance of

her mentee as a mentor in the STEP program. To say that she has made

an impact on the school community is an understatement and we can’t

wait to see what she is going to do at Lynchburg University,

congratulations, Zion – we are so proud of you!

Faculty Medallion- Barrett Stuckey

This passionate young man has been found cheering on

his classmates at just about every Glen Allen athletic

event for the past four years; he truly bleeds black and

teal. He is a beast on the tennis court and a

hard-working, inquisitive student in the classroom. He is

also incredibly funny and has a heart of gold. Oh, and

have you seen his stellar dance moves?? Glen Allen’s loss

is Virginia Tech’s gain! Go crush it in Blacksburg, Barrett

Stuckey!

Faculty Medallion- Sasha AbielmonaA force to be reckoned with, this student is a

hard-working, enthusiastic, and positive. She puts her

heart into everything she does all while having a big smile

on her face. She is everyone’s biggest cheerleader,

exhibiting genuine happiness for others’ successes and was

such incredible leader and mentor to her cross country

teammates. She has the biggest heart and American

University is very lucky to have her. Congratulations,

Sasha Abielmona!

Faculty Medallion- Keondre Shelton“Whether it’s showing up with fervent efforts in the classroom, on the

baseball field, in the greater Henrico County community, or even as a

part of a heated debate about who is the best rapper: Meek Mill or

Yung Boi, this member of the GA community maintains a positive

attitude and sharp wit. It is with great pleasure to award you, Keondre

Shelton, a faculty medallion in exchange for the profound impact you

have had on Glen Allen High School. As a mentor to many younger

jaguars, informally on the ball field, or more formally as a part of

Jaguar Gents and the S.T.E.P. Program, you truly understand the value

and importance of giving back. Keondre, the Glen Allen Family wishes

you nothing but the best as you pursue your next journey, this time as a

collegiate student-athlete at Longwood University!”

Faculty Medallion- Mia VargheseThis young lady is the epitome of humble and

hardworking. Despite her attempts to fly under the radar,

she has been a constant positive presence at Glen Allen.

Never one to shy away from a challenge, this student

always found ways to push herself while lifting those

around her. The future is bright as she continues her

education at the University of Virginia. Congratulations

Mia Varghese!

Faculty Medallion- Sydney BohnSydney is a positive force at Glen Allen and in the community in

every way! With an unbeatable work ethic, she does not only

balance athletics, academics, community service, and work, but

she excels in all that she endeavors. Her accomplishments go

beyond all that she has achieved in the last four years. Her sweet

smile, positive attitude, and willingness to help each and every

day leave a lasting impact on everyone she comes in contact

with! Sydney Bohn is an inspiring leader who quietly leads by

example, and Glen Allen will not be the same without her! Good

luck at JMU, Sydney! We know your influence will be felt in

countless ways as you champion for justice!

Faculty Medallion- Gwendolyn SargentGwen Sargent, tall, graceful, truly stunning in her beauty.

However, this is not what sets Gwen apart or makes you notice

her. It is her kindness, her intelligence and her grit. She is

genuine, caring and always has time and a kind ear for people.

This gorgeous exterior and kindness is made all the more

impressive when you get to know her and how dedicated she is to

learning. Gwen was never the most boisterous in class, or the one

who always had to have the right answer, but she always knew

the right answer. She is dogged in her pursuit of excellence. This

has led her to her next step. Gwen, the College of William and

Mary is lucky to have such an amazing human as you!

Faculty Medallion- Faith MossThis young lady is the epitome of determination and resilience, her work

ethic is unparalled and her academic record is a reflection of this. Quickly

grasping the importance of being organized she created beautiful “To Do”

lists to help her stay on track and always set a high bar for herself as well

as her peers. This made her an obvious candidate to become a mentor in

the STEP program where she employed a tough love approach, but also

led by example so her mentee could see the habits and skills that were

necessary for academic success. She is fiercely loyal, incredibly kind and

undeniably talented, whether she was sprinting around a track, holding a

colored pencil or checking in on you at the end of the day Faith Moss has

surely made her mark on Glen Allen High School. Lynchburg University is

so lucky to be the next beneficiary of your talent and tenacity,

congratulations, Faith – we are so proud of you!

Faculty Medallion- Madi St. Cyr

This recipient is resilient, ambitious, and committed

to excellence, both within the classroom and as the

leader of our TSA. She is not afraid to take initiative

and build her own path to success. She also is so

kind to other students from all walks of life, and her

constant cheerful outlook brings joy to all her

friends and teachers. She’s going to do big things

next year at JMU! Congratulations, Madi St. Cyr!

Faculty Medallion- Sean BonnerSean Bonner is an outstanding young man!! During his time

at Glen Allen, he has been involved with the baseball program,

BACK, Chick- Fil-A Leader Academy, and has taken higher

level courses to help him succeed at the next level. He is a very

kind person and a role model for other students. If I had a

classroom with 30 Sean’s my life would be awesome,

HAHAHA!!! We are so proud of him and he has truly left his

mark on the Glen Allen Community. We wish him nothing but

the best as he goes to EMU to play baseball and hopefully the

Nationals will draft him one day! Well done, Sean, and thank

you for being an amazing student and human.

Faculty Medallion- Sydney FarrarShe is there, not always the first one you notice, but

when you do, she is always a fixture in your mind.

Sydney Farrar radiates quiet joy, intelligence and

depth. She is a plodder, working her way through any

issue with grit and determination. She is always there,

for prom committee, class, her friends, her mentees in

S.T.E.P. and anyone who needs her. George Mason will

be changed for the better with you there!

Congratulations Sydney!

Faculty Medallion- Bert Kirby“You cannot mention this student’s name in the building without it

being followed “I love Bert” by both peers and staff alike. Robert

“Bert” Kirby exudes a tenacious positivity that is felt by all. He

embodies the culture of kindness found at Glen Allen High School and

leads with a sweet but inspiring humility. He has been a loyal friend to

many over his high school career and continues to impress with his

artistic knowledge and talents. Entering into life after high school, Bert

is excited to continue participating in SPARC and exploring job

opportunities with his vocational counselor at Virginia Commonwealth

University. Bert’s presence at Glen Allen will be missed but we are all

excited for a future as bright as Bert Kirby himself.”

Faculty Medallion- Christian TeasleyCaring younger brother, confident older brother, responsible, respectful, loving son, these are characteristics that describe this amazing young man.

If you asked one of his basketball coaches to describe him you will hear that Christian Teasley may not have been the most vocal team captain, but instead he lead by example. He always made it a priority to make connections with younger teammates on and off the court, being a strong role model for all who know him.

Christian made it a priority to make connections not only with his friends and teammates, while at Glen Allen High School, but also his teachers. One teacher in particular could always count on him to just check in every day to say hello, even when he was no longer in her class. (And even though they do NOT agree on which ACC basketball team is the best!)

The halls of Glen Allen, and especially the basketball court, will miss the warm smile, quick to laugh nature, and caring heart of Christian Teasley as he leaves to attend ODU in the fall.

Congratulations! We are all so proud of all you have accomplished and we know you will continue to succeed in the future!

Faculty Medallion- Gabrielle JeffersonThis young lady is a dedicated leader who is committed to

helping others and bringing equality to all at Glen Allen. She is

President of Student Council and has spearheaded many efforts

to make Glen Allen a more culturally responsive school. She is a

bridge that is able to bring all different student groups together

to accomplish a common goal. She is an individual with many

talents and is committed to improving herself. She is an

accomplished member of the drama department who wrote a

One Act Play that placed 2nd at the State competition in 2019.

She has left her mark on the athletic fields as a tennis and track

athlete. Most importantly, within the classroom, she is the kind of

student who has a thirst for knowledge and a drive to understand

complex issues. She is a true intellectual who is worried about

learning and not about grades. The University of Virginia is

getting one heck of a jaguar in Gabby Jefferson!

Congratulations Starlett Price and Zelgin Jackson!

Starlett PriceStar has made a remarkable impact on Glen

Allen’s track program, participating four years

as a varsity athlete at Glen Allen High School.

During the 2020 Indoor track and 2019

outdoor track seasons, she earned the title of

state champion in the 500 and 800, and

contributed key points towards a state team

runner up title in Indoor. She holds school

records in the 100m, 300m, 400m, 500m, and

800m and as well as four relays. This young

lady was also named the indoor region runner

of the meet in 2020. She is dedicated and

determined no matter what she embarks upon

and makes those around her better.

Zelgin JacksonZelgin displays tireless work ethic both on the

baseball field and the basketball court. As a

co-captain of the Varsity Basketball team, his

display of character lead to him earning the

Dedication, Determination & Desire Award for the

2019-2020 season. Additionally, he earned the

“Together” Award for his leadership and positive

relationships with his teammates. He was also a

three year Varsity Baseball Player. This, coupled

with the dedication to his academics make him

really someone to admire. We have no doubt that

this young person will be successful in his future

endeavors as a student athlete.

Most Valuable JaguarEarlier this year, you, the students of the Senior Class, chose a classmate whom you believe to

exhibit what it means to be a Glen Allen Jaguar. We asked you, as well as the faculty, to vote on a

“Most Valuable Jaguar” award. This student is vital to our school’s success, and without him or

her, our school would be a completely different place. This student received a certificate and an

engraved watch donated by a Glen Allen supporter.

Most Valuable Jaguar

The Most Valuable Jaguar award goes to

someone who has contributed to the school in a

meaningful way. He works hard in class, is a

varsity member of the cross country and track

teams, is an active member of BOTC and is the

senior class president! He is one of the most

spirited fans at our sporting games and makes

everyone around him feel included! This young

man gives 110% to everything he does and will

be running for Clemson University in the fall.

Devin Johnson
