Jaida came to MECHS because she was at a crossroads in her life where she wanted to drop out of high school. Instead, she decided to enroll at the Lumpkin Site. Jaida went into MECHS expecting to hate it just as much as day school, but it turned out to be the complete opposite experience for her! In the first couple of months, her attendance was slacking, so the teachers challenged her to do better and encouraged her to come to school, which ultimately boosted her confidence. Jaida says, "not only did they push me to educate myself, but they also pushed me to find my happiness and peace. I was shown love and care from everyone I came into contact with every step of my journey at MECHS." Despite Jaida doubting her abilities, she graduated early, while working full time, and now plans to attend college for psychology and criminal investigation. Jaida also received multiple scholarships from MECHS to assist with her college expenses. She plans to push herself to be the best and happiest version of herself.
