Congratulations, Class of 2026 Grads! 🎓

Thank you for the creativity, leadership, memories, and spirit you brought to JSA over the years. Your impact on this program and the people in it will not be forgotten, and we’re so proud of everything you’ve accomplished.

A special moment as our Class of 2026 PR Interns, Alli Agee and Luke Lehman, walked across the stage and handed the reigns over to our Class of 2027 JSA Interns. We can’t wait to see all the amazing things ahead for JSA’s next chapter.

More than 350 seniors. More than 1,300 volunteer hours. One meaningful day in our community.

Senior Service Day gave the Class of 2026 a chance to serve, connect and see firsthand how much impact they can make beyond the classroom.

Our community got the best of our seniors yesterday — their time, energy and willingness to help. In return, our seniors gained something just as valuable: perspective, purpose and a deeper understanding of what it means to lead through service.

Take a few minutes to watch this video. You will come away encouraged by the Class of 2026 and proud of the community helping shape them. SPECIAL THANKS TO: Jackson School for the Arts students Luke Lehman and Natalie Everhart for producing this video.

Today, our seniors signed out for the last time.

It’s hard to put into words just how much the Class of 2026 has meant to JSA. They’ve brought creativity, leadership, laughter, talent, and heart into our halls, performances, classrooms, and events, and JSA would not be the same without them.

We hope we gave them memories they’ll carry for years, friendships that last far beyond high school, and experiences that made an impact on their lives the same way they made an impact on ours.

Thank you, seniors, for everything. We’re so proud of you and can’t wait to see where life takes you next.
