Congratulations to this week's dude.we.see.you winner, Jackson Karnes! Here is what another student said about him: "It was a bit ago, but when all of the lights went off in the hallways at the end of the day, some people couldn't open their lockers because it was too dark. Jackson went around with his phone flashlight and helped some people open their lockers. I just thought it was really nice.”
Jackson, we see you!
