It’s our last night in Boston for the JEA/NSPA NHSJC! After spending the day in sessions, we headed out to the harbor to throw some tea in there just as the revolutionists did. Olathe West High Jay Novacek

We dined at High Street Place and returned to Quincy Market where we got some final souvenirs, enjoyed live music and had quite the dance party. We never want to leave Boston! JEA/NSPA NHSJC
