Formed in 1936, the National
Junior Classical League (NJCL) is an organization of junior and
senior high school students sponsored by the American
Classical League. Composed of local and state/provincial
chapters across the United States, Canada, and Australia, it is the
largest Classical organization in the world today with over 50,000
members. Its purpose is to encourage an interest in and an
appreciation of the language, literature and culture of ancient Greece
and Rome and to impart an understanding of the debt of our own culture
to that of Classical antiquity.
