About The Jamesburg High School Alumni
Association
For 73
years, Jamesburg High School proudly served the educational needs of thousands
of high school students. Now that our Alma Mater is closed, and realizing that
it is getting harder and harder to preserve its proud history and to keep track
of JHS alumni, a group of interested alumni came together and formed the
Jamesburg High School Alumni Association. The Jamesburg High School Alumni
Association officially came into being on September 14, 2000 and was
incorporated as a New Jersey not-for-profit corporation on January 12, 2004.
Membership is open to former students, graduates, faculty members,
administration and support staff members.

The Jamesburg High
School Alumni Association meets at 7PM on the second Thursday of each month.
Please check the JHSAA HOME PAGE for times and location of our meetings as we work around the abrupt closing of the Lakeview House for renovations two years ago. The Lakeview House has always been our preferred meeting location, but most often we have been meeting upstairs at Auto King, 67 East Railroad Avenue.
Jamesburg High alumni donated nearly $15,000. to restore a room at the Lakeview House as a repository for Jamesburg High School's history and heritage. Within weeks of dedicating the room, the Borough Council abruptly closed the entire building. We were forced to remove all memorabilia to storage as we wait for a time frame for completing the renovation. To date no physical work has been done, save a temporary support wall placed through the middle of our just completed room. The Boro claims it will bring the condition at least back to where our donated funds had renewed the room. We of course are most thankful for all the donated funds from alumni. The fundraising had such an enthusiastic response; it makes us all sad to be caught up in petty politics.
