custom js file loading before jquery loads in asset pipeline

I am trying to include a separate javascript file to only load on one page in my rails app.

I added a 

<%= javascript_include_tag "jumpstart" %>

At the bottom of the page (the page that needs this file).

Unfortunately, my jquery library is loading AFTER my js file loads, so my '$' is undefined.

It looks something like this

Does anyone know a workaround on how I can get the jquery library to load before this custom js file?

use content_for.

In your layout, after javascript_include_tag 'application:

<%= yield :scripts%>

In your page:

<% content_for :scripts do %>
  <%= javascript_include_tag "jumpstart" %>
<% end %>
