Quote from teacher: "Jordan Baker is a remarkable student," said Rollie Barnes, English teacher. "A senior at Maumee Valley Country Day School, Jordan is a talented musician, having written and performed her own sings since junior high. She leads the Drama Club, performs in school plays and musicals, and most recently, arranged an independent study at a local recording studio to gain more practical experience in the production side of music recording. She is a leader among the students and well-respected by the faculty as a kind and thoughtful student."
