JCC is offering an administration of the ASVAB Career Exploration Assessment on Friday, March 22nd to CTLA and ECA students. The ASVAB measures aptitude and acquired skills which can be used to help predict future academic and occupational success. ASVAB scores thus give students insight into their options and aid them in planning their next step after high school. Through your scores, you can find strengths and interests, match career goals, and discover options.
Spaces are limited, so first come - first serve.
Are you interested in the military? The ASVAB is used by military organizations to find career matches and placements for those wanting a career in any branch of the military.
This test is FREE of charge. To sign up, see your email from Ms. Stover.

Spring Break is here! Students are on Spring Break from 3/4 to 3/8. Enjoy your break and see you back on Monday 3/11.


Hello CTLA Parents and Juniors,
Tomorrow is your ACT exam. It would be best if you were not anxious but confident about this test because you have been preparing for it all year. I am sure you will do well.
Get plenty of rest this evening, and try to eat something nutritious so you are not testing on an empty stomach.
You may be dismissed to go home at the end of the exam with a note from your parent. The note should be given to your test administrator.
You've Got This!
~ Mrs. Singleton

Last night, JCPS celebrated the 2024 Leading with the Heart recipients!💝
The event, inspired by Mike Krzyzewski’s book, “Leading with the Heart,” recognizes those staff members throughout the school system that demonstrate leadership, compassion, and heart on a daily basis. One person from every school as well as central services was nominated by their peers, because of their unwavering commitment and dedication to their role.
We honor the 53 amazing members of the JCPS family for their work that clearly does not go unnoticed! Thank you!✨
Stay tuned for an event recap video...
