This year, Justus-Tiawah partnered with Claremore School Navy's ROTC program to give our junior high students another elective opportunity. This amazing opportunity taught these students leadership, teamwork, and community service! With this program, they fly drones, present colors at ceremonies, practice their marksmanship skills, work on their physical fitness, and practice together doing drill team activities. Our cadets all received promotions to Seaman and have participated in many hours of community service. We are all very proud of these Wildcats and their accomplishments!
School will open and buses will run 1 hour late. Breakfast will be available in cafeterias and car line will start at 8:40 (no second chance breakfast) and all students will start with 2nd hour so no Claremore Coop classes today, all students report to direct to J-T, 1 hour late.

The Tulsa Zoo run is a great way to get everyone moving, have fun with the family, and support JT simultaneously. Plus, with the chance to win extra cash for the school, it’s a win-win situation. The school that has the most participants could receive up to an additional $400 cash. Each registration comes with free zoo admission for the day! And, free zoo admission also includes the entire family of the race participant. Stay tuned!! Coach Faulconer and Coach Casey will announce a JT grade-level competition. Let’s go, JT!! We like to win in Wildcat Nation!
