One of the best parts of being a Trojan is knowing that every graduating class has its own unforgettable stories. We asked alumni to share their graduation photos and favorite Jenks memories, and the responses have reminded us that while years may pass, the memories stay with us.

For some, Jenks was where lifelong love stories began.

Whitney Cannon Jennings (Class of 2007) shared that she met her husband, John Jennings (Class of 2006), in 2005 while they were both part of Jenks High School Trojan Pride. Twenty years later, they’ve been together for two decades and married for ten years. Sometimes the memories made at Jenks last a lifetime.

For others, it was the teachers who made all the difference.

Michelle Pride Warden (Class of 2012) reflected on her AP English class with Mrs. Camp, sharing that she made learning fun and less stressful while serving as a mentor who was always there to listen and guide her.

Some memories are unforgettable because they happened during moments unlike any other.

Lun Cing (Class of 2020) remembered graduating during the COVID lockdown. Missing milestones like prom and GradFest made graduation feel surreal, creating a senior year that looked very different—but one that will certainly never be forgotten.

And of course, some Trojan memories are built on championship moments.

AJ Franklin (Class of 2019) recalled an incredible season: finishing with a perfect 18–0 record, ranking #2 in the nation, and winning the OSSAA 6A Soccer State Championship against Union in penalty kicks.

Robbie Hundley (Class of 1974) says that graduation was his favorite memory!

From classrooms and competitions to friendships and once-in-a-lifetime experiences, every Trojan story adds another chapter to Jenks history.

Have a graduation photo or favorite memory of your own? We’d still love to hear it as we continue our Graduation Glimpses Through the Years series! 💚💛
