A graduate of the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University, Jenna has a degree in broadcast and digital journalism and a minor in Spanish (she's fluent!). Before heading to Utah, Jenna worked in Green Bay so she's no stranger to the cold and snow.

SPANISH FORK, Utah — The spirit of the Spanish Fork High School class of ‘76 will live on, piece by piece.

“When I heard they're going to tear the school down, I asked the principal what senior projects would be coming with the school, which ones they'd move,” he said. “And this wasn't one of them. So I volunteered to take it down.”“When I started out, it was just me,” said Von Hoene. “There was nobody else. And then when it hit Facebook, I had people in all the community asking if they could help.

“This was my grandma's year,” said Von Hoene. “This was the year she graduated, and they sold candy bars just to pay for it.”
