Reflecting on JA
JA is an organization that is involved with Oak Park, Staley, Northtown, Winnetonka, Park Hill, and Park Hill South. JA puts on three dances throughout the school year and to be able to attend these dances, you have to be nominated by multiple sponsors from your school that recognize you as a well-rounded student to represent your school. The first JA dance was October 29th and was Staley and Oak Park. Here are what some JA students thought about the experience.
