Just a little over three weeks ago, the newly initiated JSA Stoughton Chapter attended Spring State, its first last overnight convention of the season that took place in Stamford, Connecticut with over 700 other Northeast Junior Statesmen.

Construction Challenge participants.

It was a new year for Construction Challenge which meant new teams, new attitudes, and a new challenge. The expectations had risen for Stoughton High students and for many this was the year: the year they would advance to states.

Junior and JSA Chapter President, Kerlyne Jean- Baptiste’s Binder, opened up to the JSA flier, her best speaker award, her gavel, and the NER Revolution, official newspaper of the northeast JSA.

Although the weather doesn’t show it, spring is here! And so, the JSA Northeast Region traditionally kicked off spring with our Northeast Spring Regional on March 19th at the Boston University Law Center.

Washington D.C. For most Stoughton High School dwellers, the city brings forth old memories of a middle school field trip. On a greater scale, D.C. is the capitol of the most powerful nation, and ultimately, the world.

Recently, 8 "JSAers" attended the 2010 JSA (Junior Statesmen of America) Fall State convention held at the Boston Park Plaza hotel on November 20th-21st.
