    Jean Jensen was a language arts teacher for USD 361 for many years and although known for having a rigorous curriculum, her students cherished the skills she taught and the care she gave. Many students became life-long friends and would often tell her of the appreciation they had for the life lessons she gave. This scholarship was her only bequest. It will be awarded to Chaparral High School graduates for their freshman year tuition and books expenses.
