North Gwinnett High School Varsity Letter

Each NGHS JCL member who accrues at least one hundred Latinitas points in the academic year will earn a Varsity Letter for his or her excellence and dedication.  Members who wish to be eligible for the Varsity Letter must have at least an 80% average in the current year of Latin and must attend both Fall Forum and the GJCL State Latin Convention.  Students must also be JCL members in good standing, meaning their dues are paid and there are not any discipline issues regarding NGHS, GJCL, or NJCL events.

End of the Year Awards

The five NGHS JCL members in each level of Latin (Latin I, II, III, and AP-V) who earn the highest Latinitas point totals will be recognized for their exceptional achievements.  The names of the first, second, and third place NGHS JCL members from each level will be engraved on a plaque with the year and their point totals.  These members will also receive a framed certificate to record their incredible achievements.  The members in fourth and fifth place will also receive framed certificates.

Mid-Year Awards

The NGHS JCL member with the highest Latinitas point total in each level of Latin by first semester's final exam will receive a $10 gift card and a framed certificate in recognition of his or her outstanding success halfway through the year.
