While known as the star quarterback for Reeltown, Jake Hornsby is also the Class of 2024’s valedictorian.

Hornsby said a former coach once told him, “If you aim for perfection, you will reach excellence,” and Hornsby has applied that motto beyond the sports arena. He said he has been working toward valedictorian status for much of his schooling years.
