Jefferson Middle School Students

Jefferson Middle School is the sister institution and the biggest rival of P.S. 38, Nate Wright's school. Most of their students are very boastful and annoying, and they beat P.S. 38 at almost all competitions. Their mascot is the Cavalier. One reason the rivalry between the school is so big is because the school is so close to P.S. 38, as they are practically in the very same neighborhood. Jefferson is known for bullying, and or picking on P.S. 38 students.
