Beyond Graduation

Jeffrey Goodson – ’05 and Carrie Lanvermeier Goodson – ’06

In the spotlight are Jeffrey Goodson Class of ’05 and Carrie (Lanvermeier) Goodson Class of ’06.

Carrie taught elementary PE at JCA for 2 years. She is currently a full-time K4 teacher at JCA . Both are head-over-heels for their  children, Ethan, Ella, and Everleigh.

Jarrod Lemons – ’11

Jarrod Lemons, a graduate of the Class of 2011, completed U.S. Air Force training in 2014 and is currently serving our country as an Airman 1st Class in Tampa, Florida. His MOS is in-flight refueling as a boom operator. This means he has the precarious responsibility of guiding a refueling boom from a tanker aircraft into a very small receptacle on another jet, while in flight. The two aircraft must fly within only a few feet of each other while this is being done.

Jarrod had high scores in the 90’s during all of his military training and testing and has been chosen several times by his command for various leadership roles. We look forward to many more accomplishments from this JCA graduate in the future.
