Students can enroll in an I/T Support certification class or a ServSafe certification course to gain valuable skills for in-demand careers. Additionally, we are launching a new cohort of Nail Tech students, a year-long program designed to prepare participants for success in the cosmetology field. These courses provide a great way to build professional skills and open doors to future career paths.
Interested students should reach out to their school counselor to request an application.
JMB Band Camp brought the energy with Color Wars Day! 🎨🎶 Shoutout to our amazing senior leaders in purple! We’re so proud of the creativity, commitment, and enthusiasm our students demonstrate every day! #JMBPride #BandCamp2025
JMB Band Camp kicked off on Monday, August 4th! 🥁🎵🌀
Students start the day with conditioning for the competitive season ahead, then use Ultimate Drill Book to learn their formations on the field. Colorguard members are learning how to use their equipment like flags and rifles, while percussionists practice playing with 4 mallets, using a variety of eccentric instruments, and splitting rhythms across their section. This week, performers will start putting music to movement!
You won’t want to miss their hard work in action at our Family Showcase on 8/15 at 6 PM!
Come cheer them on! 🥳⚓❤️
