Jayla Morgan - Olympia High School

Jayla is a young woman who is not afraid to stand up for what’s right. She believes in fairness and equality for all and is not  afraid to voice it!  She is very determined and possesses all of the qualities that make a great leader. Jayla enjoys volunteering within her community and describes community service as an “amazing feeling.”

To date, Jayla has completed over 250 hours of community service and counting. She is a member of her school’s National Honor Society, as well as the National Achievers program. Jayla’s favorite MLK Speech is “I've Seen The Mountain Top" because Dr. King speaks about Unity and economic justice, which are topics that are still relevant to this day. 

Future Plans: Jayla plans to attend Spelman College where she aspires to become a child psychiatrist.
