- Jerome has recently purchased a new mascot costume worn by Nathaniel Webb Moseley, a change from its previous years where the mascot wore body paint and Celtic garb instead of a real costume. This was effective at the time due to the crowd-entertaining performance of gymnastics skills by the original student acting as mascot. The new costume is that of a cartoonized Celtic similar to the one pictured on Jerome's logo. It features a large head, red hair, and a war helmet. The new Celtic mascot is worn by students whom do not need to perform as the original. The new uniform was paid in large part by a competitive cheerleading company gift certificate, given to the DJHS Cheerleaders during one of their numerous award-winning performances throughout Central Ohio. The remaining balance of the mascot uniform was donated from various generous booster organizations of the school, many of which have parents demanding increased participation in school spirit activities throughout the school.
