📣 Major Announcement! A New Chapter for the JO Legacy Society! 🎉2026 marks a massive milestone for us, and to celebrate, we are thrilled to officially announce our new public name: The JO Legacy Society Archive!

🏛️✨Why "Archive"?
We wanted to give everyone a clearer understanding of exactly what we do. Our goal is to collect, protect, and share the amazing history of John Oliver High School. The word "Archive" captures our true purpose: preserving our shared memories and safeguarding the incredible story of the Jokers. 🃏❤️💙

Take a look at our brand-new logo! It brings together our classic colors, our founding year (est. 2000), and our guiding mission: "Honouring the Past to Build for the Future."

Thank you to all the alumni, teachers, and students who make this work possible. Here’s to preserving our history and looking forward to the future! Virtus Vincit! 🛡️

Do you remember singing the school song sung to the top of our lungs?

C'mon Jayo we're rooting for you
We're for the good old red and the blue
You'll be in our hearts forever
We're always loyal to you!
Rah, Rah, Rah!

We are the school with spirit and pep
And we will struggle as we go
We'll put you on the top, you bet!
Three cheers for old Jayo!
Rah, Rah, Rah!
