Aubrey Weber had a blast at DECA ICDC (International Career Development Conference)!

Pirate Aubrey represented Jackson Area Career Center in the Principles of Marketing competition in Atlanta, GA this week. This is comprised of a comprehensive business administration exam and a role play scenario based presentation.

🏆Aubrey outperformed all other competitors in the exam portion and received a high exam score achievement medal.🏅 She was called up on stage in front of approximately 30,000 of her peers to receive this honor at the Mercedez Benz Stadium (what an experience!!🤩).

Although she didn’t proceed into the final round of the competition, she should be incredibly proud of her accomplishment! She’s already pumped and ready for DECA next year!

We are so PROUD of YOU, Aubrey!!!! 🏴‍☠️

We are incredibly proud of our eight National Honor Society students who spent time this morning giving back to the community!

Caitlyn Briggs, Jocelyn Gamez, Myla Hasegawa, Ethan Hays, Tyler Nall, Lucas Rowley, Cade Rugg, and Jenna Yob teamed up with People for the Parks and Trails and Grow Jackson to help revitalize the garden beds at the Martin Luther King Jr. Recreation Center.

In just a short window, these leaders tackled weeding and mulching to help support local food access and keep our public spaces beautiful. Way to show what leadership and service look like in action!

The Napoleon High School Quiz Bowl team placed 11th in the state at the Division C/D State Championship at Michigan State University. Competing against a strong field of qualified teams, the team’s finish reflects a high level of consistency and subject-matter expertise across its 10-student roster.

The Division C/D competition included 116 top-performing students who qualified for the state championship. Napoleon’s top performers demonstrated strong results, with three students finishing in the top 30 based on preliminary round statistics:

Ethan Hays — 21st
Braylon Nykamp — 24th
James Purdue — 30th

The team’s 11th-place finish was a collective effort from the entire traveling squad: Blake Fish, Dein Fry, Ethan Hays, Griffin Keith, Logan Kish, Ryder McCloe, Braylon Nykamp, Trenton Pruitt, James Purdue, and Troy Styron.

This performance places Napoleon among the top Division C/D programs for the 2025–2026 season. The team represented the school with distinction on the state stage at Michigan State University.

Graduation Update
Napoleon Community Schools is excited to announce the scheduled opening of our new fitness center on Tuesday, May 12th. Part of the 2023 bond approved by voters, this new fitness center will be a staffed, membership-based facility open to residents of the Napoleon School District and will replace the current key-card entry system that is used for community members in the current weight room. Beginning on May 12th, the weight room will be reserved for use by Napoleon students and athletes under the supervision of Napoleon teachers and coaches.

Applications for membership to the new facility can be found here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1RaC38go4-a7omCWnk3szclEMF6EvfQwbCYvsb0lcZOE/edit

We will begin processing these applications on Monday, April 20th so that we can ensure a smooth transition for our community members that are moving from the weight room to the fitness center. Current key cards will be deactivated on May 12th.

We will also be hosting a community open house on Wednesday, April 29th from 6:00 – 8:00 PM for those that would like to preview the new fitness center.

This is a great addition to our campus footprint and we are looking forward to seeing our community take advantage of this amenity.
