John Jay High School

Welcome Back, Class of 2027!

It’s hard to believe we are already entering your junior year at John Jay High School! Over the past three years, I’ve had the privilege of watching this class grow into a thoughtful, resilient, and talented group of young adults. I’m honored to continue this journey with you as your Assistant Principal.

Junior year is an extremely important year. It’s a year of focus, determination, and preparation. Whether you're thinking about college, a trade, the workforce, or something else entirely, the habits you build now and the choices you make this year will help shape your path ahead.

Let’s continue to support one another, lean into challenges, and stay focused on our goals. Together, let’s evolve into the best versions of ourselves.  As always, I will be here every step of the way, so let’s make this year memorable. 

Here’s to a strong start and an unforgettable junior year! I can’t wait to see you all.

With pride, 
Natalie Cotto
