New Chapter of NJAHS

Starting Tuesday, September 3rd, our new 8th grade lunch group will start recruiting members. The impetus for the new group is the annual drop-off in art club attendance for 8th graders. I have been told that the high, frenetic energy of 6th grade art club attendees can be a bit much for our 8th graders. To meet this need for a calmer, more grounded experience, we’ll begin meeting during 8th grade lunch on C Days.

Some areas for exploration will be community-based arts activities, field trips, and connecting with our WHS counterparts.
