North Judson-San Pierre will be hosting the second annual Blue Jay Showcase during Friday night’s girls’ basketball game versus Triton at the Jr/Sr High School.

Superintendent Dr. Annette Zupin invites all community members to come out and see the various things that NJSP students have been working on this year.

“It’s an opportunity for our students and teachers to display or demonstrate student work and programs.” Zupin explained, “So in the cafeteria, during the ball game, we will have just a variety of student work and programs.”

Dr. Zupin said work from students of various ages will be featured. Patrons will have a chance to see artwork and demonstrations and displays from students who specialize in woodworking, nutrition and agriculture, as well as demonstrations from elementary students involved in the robotics program.

The Blue Jay Showcase will be run tomorrow from 5:30 p.m. until halftime of the varsity game. Zupin added that the choir will be singing the national anthem at the game as a way to showcase their talents.

Additionally, this year, an area will be set up in the atrium, near the concession stand, in order to generate excitement about a video that will be made this spring.

The superintendent said, “NJSP, we are going to work on creating a video, to celebrate the pride and the history of our school communities”

She said they’re looking to gather information from the past and they wish to include the histories of the North Judson and the San Pierre schools when they were two separate entities.

Superintendent Zupin invited all former students and faculty to attend and tell their stories or show any artifacts or memorabilia that could help share the history of North Judson-San Pierre.
