What a great night to be a Panther! It was truly special as we honored Meredith Gray as the program’s all-time leading scorer and rebounder and recognized our Jersey 100 faculty and staff. The JCHS Pep Band — including our talented 8th graders — brought the energy, while the Cheer and Dance teams delivered fantastic performances. We also had amazing performances of the National Anthem by Lainey Williams and Nicholas Wedig. Our Girls’ Basketball team earned a big win, and our Boys played hard down to the wire. Fans from both Waterloo and Jersey also shared a memorable moment as we welcomed our Special Olympics Basketball Team at halftime. Winning is always the goal, but nights like this remind us that the real magic is in the experience — celebrating community, connection, and the bigger picture that makes extracurricular activities so meaningful.
🎉 Congratulations to Ms. Christy Schilling! 🎉

Take a look at the 6th Grade Ancient Egypt Exhibit at JCMS!
Our 6th-grade students transformed their learning into a full museum experience by creating Ancient Egypt artifacts and bringing them together in a student-designed exhibit. From travel brochures highlighting famous Egyptian sites to detailed displays, every part of the exhibit was researched, built, painted, and created by students.
You’ll see diagrams, masks, maps, a carved Sphinx, 3D printed models, and more, all imagined and constructed through students’ creativity and hard work. Students loved researching and fully immersing themselves in the world of Ancient Egypt, and their excitement shows in every exhibit.
Check out the photos to see this amazing student-created museum and how Ancient Egypt came to life in 6th grade!
Thank you to Miss Warren, Miss Strohbeck, and Miss Schilling for making Social Studies engaging for your students.
