Marist JCL

Events

This page is organized by month, with a short description of each event. For more details on our most prominent events, see the subpages of this page.

Year-round, Marist Latin students are enthusiastic and excited for the next thing to participate in! Our events encourage everyone in the JCL to get involved by singing, baking, creating, learning, and competing.

​

Enjoy!

One of our most prominent annual JCL events is our Mount Vesuvius Festival! On September 28th, Mt. Vesuvius erupted at Marist School---with cake?

This winter, the weather got cold quickly, which is the perfect weather for

Cocoa and Carols. Early in the chilly morning, Latin students greet the incoming students outside with hot chocolate while singing Latin Christman carols.

January

Our annual Bake Sale was the perfect way to kick off 2020! This year we made and sold pizzelle* and gained around $200; more money than we've ever made before.

 

*Pizzele: traditional Italian waffle cookies. They are delicious with powdered sugar and chocolate sauce!

April

We are so excited for Virtual State Convention this year! We were once state champs and we intend to retake that title. Even with COVID-19 affecting our school year, it didn't stop our Latin students from giving 110% in their graphic and creative arts. Our goal: to win in as many categories as possible and to beat our score last year!
