On Monday, JMB Alum and current West Point Military Academy Cadet Landon Stauffer presented information on the military academy application process and experience to prospective JMB students. Landon was an outstanding student leader in and out of the classroom during his time at JMB and is about to embark on his military career. We appreciate Landon returning to work with our students today.

Last Friday sixteen of our Concert Choir students participated in the Wicomico All County Chorus festival. They spent the day rehearsing with students from all of the other high schools in the county and performed in a concert that evening. It was a great day of choral music and another reminder of why Wicomico County is consistently named as a Best Community for Music Education by the NAMM Foundation.
Students had the opportunity to enjoy a soul food tasting, connecting them to the rich culinary history we’ve been studying. Complementing this, two HBCU graduates shared their experiences and career paths, highlighting the transformative role HBCUs play in education and leadership. The students were deeply engaged, having thoughtfully prepared pre-written questions and gaining valuable cultural insights.
