I am excited to announce that pending Board Approval on Thursday, July 24th, Tallyn Peterson will be named the next Athletic Director at West Jefferson High School and Middle School.

A native of Enon, Ohio and graduate of Greenon High School, Tallyn Peterson earned his Bachelor of Science in Sport Industry from The Ohio State University and is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Athletic Administration from Ohio University.

He most recently served as the Assistant Athletic Director at Grove City Christian School during the 2024–25 school year, where he was responsible for all aspects of game and facility scheduling, managing contests, and numerous other tasks within the athletic department. Prior to that, he gained broad experience in various aspects of athletic administration as an intern at Dublin Jerome High School.

Outside of his professional responsibilities, Tallyn is an avid football fan who enjoys lifting weights and golfing in his free time. He currently resides in Hilliard, Ohio.
