John Jay High School
Empowering All - Lighting the path to success
Can you guess who's who? 🎨 The We Are John Jay Art Show is on display in the JJHS gallery hallway. Studio Art and Design students created “blind portraits” of faculty and staff using only their responses to a questionnaire. Without knowing who their subjects were or what they looked like, students used clues about their personalities, interests, and experiences to create their portraits.

Building a business model starts with understanding how all the pieces connect. AP Business Scholars at JJHS began by highlighting key information in a case study and examining how customers, products and markets connect within an existing business. They will use these insights as they develop their own Business Model Canvas throughout this new course, offered at only a few high schools.
