J&C Showcase Scheduled for May 29

The 2019 J&C Showcase is scheduled for Wednesday, May 29 in the freshman cafeteria. Reception will be at 6 pm and the ceremony begins at 6:30. We will end as close to 8 pm as possible, but fair warning: sometimes the event goes over a bit!

J&C Showcase is a chance to celebrate student achievements and say goodbye to graduating seniors. Before the event, underclassmen are invited to apply for a Rising Star Award, which is judged by senior editors; Rising Star winners are announced at the event.

Editorial Leadership students (mostly seniors and some juniors) plan the entire evening from beginning to end. They invite parents to contribute by bringing food and drink to the event. An invitation will go out soon that requires an RSVP and includes a way to sign up to bring refreshments.
