- I graduated from John Essex in 2003 as valedictorian and I am now two courses away from earning my MA in Medical Lab Technology at Cleveland State University. I think that JEH is a totally awesome school that does not recieve the credit that it is due. I feel that if the school recieved more funding to help the high school student get more advanced for college with more college-oriental courses, JEH would outstand any other high school in the Marengo County School District. No matter what anyone says about JEH, i will forever be proud of it's principal, teachers, alumni, and most of all the students. keep up the "Excellent Work"!!!!
