JPMAA closed on Monday, June 19th

Dear JPMAA Membership,

We will be CLOSED on Monday, June 19th, in honor of the Juneteenth Holiday.

It is our usual policy to close when Boston Public Schools are closed.

Juneteenth has been celebrated in Texas since 1865. It is a Federal Holiday now that commemorates African American freedom, and indeed Freedom for all of us.

Please remember that we always encourage folks to make up any classes missed!
