Congratulations to our inaugural members of the National Latin Honor Society! This year they proudly started a new chapter of the National Latin Honor Society! With graduation last week we wanted to celebrate them.
On May 17, they held inductions for their first cohort of seniors: Taja Fuller, Amelia Garman, Margaret Lacy, Alyssa Layton, Phoeboe Martin-Cole, and Della Pomeroy. These outstanding students maintained a 90%+ average for the last three terms and demonstrated excellent character and scholarship. Underclassmen, get ready—next year, you could be part of this prestigious society too!
Congratulations, seniors!

JM Forensic Science Scholars had a blast on their final project! The goal was to create a diorama presenting a crime scene with 3D imagery, a crime scene sketch (with measurements, not to scale), and a summary of the suspects and evidence linking them to the crime scene. The attention to detail and creativity was high in these last few weeks of school. Enjoy your summer break, JM scholars, and see you next school year! #ForensicScience #CrimeScene #StudentProjects #CreativeMinds #SummerBreak #JMScholars
