Subscribe to the NJCL newsletter and get new issues sent directly to your inbox! The newsletter is published bimonthly to regularly inform members of the National Junior Classical League of Upcoming NJCL events, officer updates, and various other announcements. The first issue may be accidentally sent to your spam (eheu!), so make sure to check there; after you mark the first issue as “not spam,” the others should be sent to your main inbox. If you have any questions, suggestions, or concerns about the newsletter, feel free to reach out (commcoordinator@njcl.org)!

The Club of the Month contest aims to highlight the activities and service projects chapters get up to over the course of the year. This year’s C.O.T.M. theme is ancient geography! For activity inspiration, information about submitting, and background information about cities from Tingis to Londinium, check out the C.O.T.M. packet at https://bit.ly/COTM25-26!

Submit to the NJCL’s promotional video contest! The promotional video contest highlights creative and high quality videos that serve to promote the NJCL convention, promote classics as a whole, promote state/regional conventions, or retell mythological/historical stories. Additional submissions that don’t fall into any of these categories will be accepted in the “Open” category, which has no winners but has all submissions recognized at the NJCL convention.

To submit, email vp1@njcl.org with your name and chapter/state, as well as the category you’re entering and the video itself. Submissions must be sent by March 15, 2026 (for Nationals promo) or June 1, 2026 (for everything else), but early submissions are encouraged. Note that all video participants must also send a media release form.

For more information, check out the rubric: https://bit.ly/NJCLPromoVid2526.
