He has also been involved with the Typhoon Marching Band, theater, the Charles Pickering Honors Institute, and Bobcat Brigade student ambassadors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Chisolm, however, leadership is less about the positions he holds and more about becoming someone others can trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTo me, leadership isn\u2019t about receiving a title and then becoming the person worthy of it; it\u2019s about becoming that person first, and letting the title catch up,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An ordained minister and children\u2019s pastor at All Seasons Worship Center, Chisolm plans to continue his education after Jones by pursuing a bachelor\u2019s degree in mechanical engineering at Mississippi State University. He is the son of Brian and Jenna Chisolm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Miss Jones College Annah-Bryce Clark said being chosen by the students she has shared her Jones experience with makes the recognition especially meaningful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is the biggest honor to be selected Miss Jones College by my peers and friends around me,\u201d said Clark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Sandhill native is an elementary education major and graduate of Greene County High School. At Jones, Clark serves as a member of the Bobcat Brigade student ambassador organization and has been recognized as a Letter \u201cJ\u201d Award recipient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before coming to Jones, Clark was a cheerleader at Greene County High School and served as Beta Club president. She was also named second alternate in the Distinguished Young Women program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clark is a member of Zion\u2019s Rest Missionary Baptist Church. Following her time at 91ÁÔÆæ, she plans to continue her education at Mississippi State University to complete her degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She is the daughter of BJ and Amy Clark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chisolm and Clark will represent their fellow students as Mr. and Miss Jones College during the 2026 Homecoming celebration on Saturday, October 3. They will be recognized between the 3rd and 4th quarters of the Bobcats\u2019 football game as students, alumni, family, and friends return to Ellisville to celebrate the traditions that remind them they are \u201cBack Where You Belong.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ELLISVILLE \u2013 Jones College students Aidan Chisolm of Mize and Annah-Bryce Clark of Sandhill were recently selected by their peers to serve as Mr. and Miss Jones College for 2026.
