Millennium Courtyard

A message from the Colonial Athletic Boosters...

Do you want to share in a great TJ Tradition? Purchase an engraved brick to be installed in the Millennium Courtyard! The Millennium Courtyard at TJ is a wonderful opportunity to honor and memorialize your TJ experience. The courtyard continues to expand, and we invite you to be a part of this great tradition.

The Millennium Courtyard is located in the front of the school between the cafeteria and the library. It was designed to provide a campus-like setting where students, faculty, administration and visitors to the school can gather to study, relax and socialize. It features an interior brick courtyard with a raised brick seat wall and brick walkways. The former picnic tables have been relocated and the area has been landscaped. The project is funded by the tax-deductible sale of engraved bricks, which are incorporated into the paved interior courtyard and walkways.

The courtyard currently features hundreds of engraved bricks representing over 20 different graduating classes. The walkways leading to the courtyard have been "dry set," enabling the replacement of regular bricks with engraved bricks in the future. When you visit the school, stop by and see the beautiful results.

The bricks may be engraved with up to three lines of text and two emblems reflecting and celebrating your achievements, activities, character, and friendships. Visit the courtyard and see the unique collection of emblems available and get ideas for designing your brick. The cost of an engraved brick is $60; each emblem is $15.

Order forms are available by linking to the Jefferson wesite.
