The June Buchanan Middle School Academic Team has had an amazing year. The team, coached by Cindy Hall, has competed in three events sponsored by the Kentucky Association for Academic Competition (KAAC). JBS is proud that our students place in events at each of these competitions!
Comprised of five sixth-graders, one seventh-grader, and two-eighth graders, the team was able to hold its own against teams consisting of older, more experienced students. This year’s results have shown us that the future of the JBS Academic Team should be outstanding! Way to go Crusaders!
