USAG BAVARIA \u2013 HOHENFELS, Germany \u2013 Commissary and community leadership gathered before the store opened June 4 to honor a Hohenfels Middle \/ High School student for earning a scholarship from the Defense Commissary Agency.<\/p>\n

Malea Jobity, a senior at the high school who is slated to attend the University of Vermont and pursue a career in teaching elementary school, wrote an essay describing the impact volunteering had on her path in life.<\/p>\n

Jobity had spent a previous summer at Hohenfels volunteering with the Religious Support Office during Vacation Bible School. She found the work rewarding enough that she wanted to continue working with small children.<\/p>\n

\u201cVolunteering at VBS was part of the reason why I decided that I wanted to become an elementary school teacher,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn recognition of the challenges faced by military Families, their contribution to the readiness of the fighting force and the role of the commissaries in the community, the Scholarship for Military Children program was created to provide needed education opportunities to the children of Family members,\u201d said Fitzgerald Hairston, Hohenfels commissary store director.<\/p>\n

Angela Lane, the deputy garrison manager for Hohenfels, took part in the ceremony as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love to see our young adults striving for higher education,\u201d she said. \u201cYou guys are amazing!\u201d<\/p>\n

Jobity was joined by her Family, including her father Lt. Col. Brando Jobity, chief nursing officer at U.S. Army Health Clinic Hohenfels; mother Mary Jo Jobity, and twin sister Jalissa Jobity, who has accepted an appointment at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, New York.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m the proudest person there is,\u201d said Lt. Col. Jobity. \u201cI really do appreciate the fact that with all her accolades, it\u2019s the humility she has. She doesn\u2019t brag about it, so I\u2019m super proud.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m very proud of both of them,\u201d Mary Jo said of her daughters. \u201cThey show me how to be a better person every day, and I\u2019m super happy about their success. They earned it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Both sisters are scheduled to graduate from Hohenfels Middle \/ High School during a ceremony June 6 on post. The ceremony will be preceded by a parade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
