The North Carolina Junior Classical League (NCJCL) is a branch of the National Junior Classical League (NJCL). Our purpose is to encourage an interest in the language, literature and culture of ancient Greece and Rome and to appreciate the effect those Classical civilizations have affected our world today.

We, the members of the Junior Classical League, covenant to hand on the torch of classical civilization in the modern. We believe an acquaintance with the civilizations of Greece and Rome will help us understand and appraise this world of today, which is indebted to ancient civilizations in its government and laws, literature, language, and arts. We affirm the JCL experience develops responsibility, fosters brotherhood, promotes enthusiasm, encourages competition, inspires dedication, and enriches our total growth. |
Seeking the best, the highest our goal Working for greatness through glories of old. Searching the realms of the golden past, We follow the classics' truths that last. In knowledge, truth, and fellowship, we're growing every day The friendly hand of JCL aids in every way. In Rome's proud steps we're marching on, with every true colleague. And forever we'll hold to the Purple and Gold of the Junior Classical League. |
