Patuloy na bumababa ang kabuuang populasyon ng JCA habang umangat naman ng kaunti ang sa High School Department, ayon sa dokumentong inilabas ng JCA Office.

Nabawasan ng 0.3% ang populasyon ng paaralan mula 645 noong nakaraang taon tungo sa 643 ngayon.

Kapansin-pansin naman ang pagkalagas ng 19 mag-aaral mula sa Grade School Department, na ngayon ay 323 na lamang mula sa 341 noong 2009 - 2010.

Ayon kay School Steward Gng. Cynthia Genon, nababahala sila sa pagbaba ng bilang ng estudyante.

Ngunit sa kabila nito, naniniwala pa rin sila na kakayanin ng JCA ang pagsubok na ito.

The activity, sponsored by the Supreme Student Government and supported by the Sports Club, the High School Department and the Grade School Department, will likewise serve as a pep rally for JCA's varsity teams, which will compete in the upcoming Season 4 of the Quezon City Athletic Association.
