Jessica Quarrells one-week-old son Dominic is a beautiful little boy. 

Being a teen mother made Jessica realize how special life is.  She said, “I had to grow-up fast, get my stuff together and stop playing around. Life is short. I don’t regret having my son and I am excited about my future with him and my fiancé.”

She added, “Don’t give up and never settle for less.  Graduate from high school, even if it takes you until you are 21.  You need to complete school for your child, because when they grow-up they will say, I’m not going to quit because my mom didn’t.”

Without the Florence Crittenton School Jessica would not be graduating. She said, “The School helped me to graduate this year and the Early Learning Center helped me to know what it takes to be a good mother and taught me how to care for my child.”

Jessica plans to go to community college.  She said, “I want to become a Parole Officer and eventually a Crime Scene Investigator.”
