STUDENT
Currin named to
dean’s list at MSU
Jett said he is glad he
can rodeo and keep up with
school. His parents both did
rodeo and they help him in
and out of the arena. “My
dad rodeo-ed before I was
born and was pretty suc-
cessful. He helps me a lot
and helps me get better at
my game,” Jett said.
Although he mostly
does team roping, Jett also
does calf roping at high
school rodeos. His awards
are impressive: he won the
JR High State Title Header,
the JR Bob Fiest Invitation-
al #10, was the JR NFR
Open Qualifier and the Jr
NFR #10 Qualifier in Reno
and qualified for the Jr NFR
in both the #10 roping and
the open.

Academy for giving him the
chance to excel in rodeo and
academics. “It gave me a
flexible schedule so I could
continue with my educa-
tion while working on my
roping. Mrs. Shane helped
by guiding me through
the process and also was
there for me when I needed
her the most. She helped
me with making sure my
schoolwork didn’t slip and
helped when I was stressed
about getting everything
done,” Jett said.
Jett plans to attend col-
lege, get a degree in Ag
Business and then try to
qualify for the NFR. He
also plans on staying in-
volved in riding and train-
ing rope horses.
