In the face of adversity, JCAS emerged with stories of resilience, creativity, and perseverance.
Two fires that devastated our building became a catalyst for reimagining our goals, building new relationships, and deepening our commitment to culturally responsive arts and sciences programs. Despite challenges, JCAS embraced the opportunity for growth and transformation.
