January was a fun class! We discussed hat etiquette and made life size place settings. Mrs. Thompson gave us some fun tips and tricks to remember where each item goes on the table. Prizes were given to our November challenge winners.

We had a wonderful time at our Holiday Dances last week! A quick lesson on thank you notes followed by dancing, games, and refreshments! The students were able to practice sitting at a table, using a fork, and engaging everyone in polite conversation.

Finally posting a few photos from our Thanksgiving Class. Students learned how to help someone with their coat and the proper way to open various doors for other people. We challenged everyone to have an attitude of gratitude all month!

So important that we teach proper handshake techniques at the very first class! (And we practice every month!)

A good handshake never goes out of style! Our students practice greeting others with confidence, kindness, and eye contact, learning that true courtesy begins with how you make someone feel.

We had a wonderful time with our Fayette students this past week! We used props to teach proper introductions of two people. The lady and gentlemen from each class who had the most signatures from September’s class challenge received a small prize.

One of our students received Honorable Mention in the “What Junior Cotillion Means to Me” essay contest! This is an optional essay that students can write during the season, and they send them directly to our National office for judging. Congrats, Lana!

We had the best time at our Final Balls last week! Our students were able to show off all they’ve learned during the season. Year I students enjoyed dancing and dessert. Year II and Premiere students had a full 5-Course Instructional Dinner before their Ball. Everyone looked their best in their formal attire!

We’re already gearing up for another successful season, and registration is open! https://nljc.com/n/index.php/chapters/fayettega/chapter/registration/2025-2026
