LAKEPORT – A local student has won a prestigious state award.

The California Junior Scholastic Federation (CJSF) Marion Huhn Award recognizes 25 outstanding students from 600 state chapters for their academic excellence and service to the school and community.

CJSF chapters nominate their top two students for the Marian Huhn Award. Candidates submit a packet including letters of recommendation and a personal statement. Five students from each region receive a $250 award.

Asia Jones, 14, of Terrace School was nominated by CJSF advisor Lisa Prather and selected as a scholarship recipient in April.

Jones is an active member of the Blue Heron 4-H Club (Lakeport) where she has served as president and teen leader.

She plays trumpet in the Terrace School Band and she maintains a 4.0 grade point average.

“I was speechless when I heard my name announced, but also very, very excited,” Jones said.

The award was presented at the northern California California Scholastic Federation and CJSF spring conference held in Chico.
