We, the members of the Junior Classical League, covenant to hand on the torch of classical civilization in the modern world. We believe an acquaintance with the civilizations of Greece and Rome will help us understand and appraise this world of today, which is indebted to ancient civilization in its government, laws, literature, language, and arts. In addition, the JCL experience develops responsibility, fosters brotherhood, promotes enthusiasm, and enriches our total growth.
