The group of nearly 100 high school students were celebrated with a day of recognition including breakfast, entertainment and inspiring comments from WDAM-TV Vice President and General Manager, Tim Walker and WDAM-TV anchor/reporter, Kyra Lampley, who is also a Jones College graduate.

“As you sit in those chairs, look around the room and bask in the determined spirit you exude. You are the Top of the Class,” said Lampley.

Each student was recognized and received a special, Top of Class Certificate of Achievement, commemorative T-Shirt and participated in the traditional, Hat Toss while the WDAM-TV production crew documented the event to be featured during WDAM-Sunrise at 6:58 a.m., on May 8, through June 16, and on the WDAM-TV webpage.

Jones College was excited to partner with WDAM-TV to honor the Top of Class 2023 for the 26th year, hosting this ‘red-carpet’ special event and recognition program, honoring the academic achievements of our high school students in the Pine Belt,” said Jones College President, Dr. Jesse Smith.
