WE A.R.E.

Neuqua Valley

JKB started in our area in the late 1990s. It began at NVHS in 2016,
when we entered the DVC. We were able to send 12 student
athletes to JKB EEF @ Monmouth College. In 2019, the regional
leadership retired the program as we know it but plans to support
it in the future. This means we are on our own with help rather
than following a prescribed programing. This is an opportunity.

WE A.R.E. Wildcats! Athletes Representing Excellence. We A.R.E.

because we are rooted in the leadership style set by JKB standards
of Strength, Humility, Compassion & Service.
