Our 2026-2027 Communications Journals, which we ca Our 2026-2027 Communications Journals, which we call CJs, have arrived!!! Thank you to our Student Affairs teams for letting us film the unboxing.

Helping students manage their time and schoolwork is essential to our academic model. One of the most important tools in developing lifelong habits of self-direction and disciplined, critical inquiry is the CJ.

At first glance, it looks like a daily planner, but during the school year it becomes the epicenter of our students’ education, a record of their past and upcoming responsibilities, and it is a way to keep track of progress. 

Thank you to all our great student artists who submitted CJ cover art, too! The CJs look amazing this year!
