The Ashland-Greenwood community continues to show what it means to lead with determination, heart, and service.

One of our alumni, Jaxson Hamm, recently achieved an incredible milestone by completing the prestigious Boston Marathon—one of the world’s most historic and challenging races, drawing around 30,000 runners from across the globe each year.

Even more inspiring, this accomplishment went beyond personal achievement. The Jaxon used the opportunity to give back, raising money for local nonprofits and supporting causes close to home.

From the streets of Boston back to Ashland, the support of family, friends, and community played a key role in this journey—showcasing the lasting impact of the Bluejay spirit.

We are proud to celebrate this outstanding example of perseverance, generosity, and community pride.
