Miss East - Jordan Steele
Hello, my name is Jordan Steele and I am representing East High School as the 2024 candidate in the River Days pageant. I am the daughter of Amanda Dyer of Portsmouth, Ohio. I have six wonderful siblings who have helped me grow tremendously: Shaelyn, Kyle, Brooklyn, Aliyah, Hailen, & Trae. As an East Tartan, I enjoy being involved within my school and community. For instance, I am a 2 year member of the varsity cheerleading, varsity basketball, varsity softball, and varsity volleyball team. I was a member of Art Club for 1 year. For 2 years I have been a member of Key Club, and I am also a member of Prom Committee, the Dance Team, The Sheild, and Sources of Strength. Being involved in multiple activities throughout school has taught me time management and how to work hard with others even under pressure.
My platform “Grow Through What You Go Through” means that I want to be able to help young people and/or their families in difficult circumstances overcome life’s difficulties like the one’s I personally have went through such as domestic violence, emotional/mental abuse, poverty, and substance abuse. I have been with the Community Action Organization Organization of Scioto County since I was 14 years old and they have guided me every step of the way in helping me get to where I am today. I am thrilled to say that they are going to be a part of my platform; they are like a second family to me and I wouldn’t be where I am today without their help. A way I plan on helping my community is by guiding them and providing them with resources like I was so grateful to have. Some of the many services the Community Action Organization provides are family services, workforce development, social services, nutrition, health services, community development, and more. I know that there are other young people and families out there with similar stories to mine and with the help of an amazing organization like this one, they can grow through what they go through as well!
As Miss East I would just like to say thank you so much to my faculty, staff, and student body for allowing me to represent our school; You guys are my family. I am honored to hold this title and not only represent my school, but community as a whole; This means the world to me. I hope to be a shining light to my school, community, and families that I get to know through my platform. I am beyond proud to be an East Tartan.
