The Tau Rho Chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Incorporated is pleased to announce that our Talent Hunt participant, Jordon Garrett, earned third place at the William “B.B.” Prentiss Jr. Third District Talent Hunt Competition.

Jordon is the son of George and Bernadette, brother to N’Dia and Ava, and uncle to four‑year‑old Emeri. A junior at Brooke Point High School, he exemplifies academic excellence through his rigorous coursework in both IB and AP programs. Following graduation, Jordon plans to begin his collegiate studies at Germanna Community College before transferring to either Virginia Commonwealth University or Virginia State University.

Beyond the classroom, Jordon continues to refine his artistic talents through drawing, sketching, and painting. His dedication and creativity were recognized in March 2026, when he won the Tau Rho Chapter Talent Hunt with two exceptional pieces of art—an achievement that paved the way for his success at the District level.

The Brothers of Tau Rho proudly congratulate Jordon on this outstanding accomplishment and look forward to witnessing his continued growth as a scholar and artist.
