In years past, Johnstown has had very successful sports teams with many making it to the regional playoffs. The Johnnies have a rivalry with the Northridge Vikings.

Student Government

Johnstown Monroe High School's Senior Class has a 5-member body of Class Officers, consisting of Class President, Class Vice President, Class Representative, Class Treasurer, and Class Secretary. In 2023, outgoing president, Alex Colley, endorsed Dametrius Brown for class president in Brown's successful bid for the office. President Brown promised that the “Power to the Class Initiative" enacted during President Colley's term would continue under his watch. The Power to the Class Initiative is a promise of transparent decision making from students who hold class officer positions and acts as a living archive of information and history regarding Johnstown-Monroe High School's former class officers.

The text of the initiative reads:

"The enactment of this policy mandates that the elected representatives of Johnstown-Monroe High School's senior class shall diligently keep their respective classmates informed about notable events throughout the school year. In alignment with prior commitments to enhance student involvement in their educational experience, the duly elected class officers are expected to actively listen to and consider ideas and feedback from their peers. The primary objective of this policy is to foster a transparent relationship between the class government and the student body, thereby eliminating any barriers to open communication and idea exchange."

The current class president is Brandon Weisenberger, who was elected in May of 2024. President Weisenberger's term is set to expire in May of 2025.

Innovation Lab

In February 2024, Intel and Meta collaborated to inaugurate an Innovation and Engineering Lab for Johnstown-Monroe High School students. Collectively, the two labs house approximately $500,000 worth of technology, aimed at fostering new opportunities for students interested in STEM fields and other career paths. These labs are a result of Intel's commitment to supporting positive educational initiatives, following the company's 2022 announcement of the construction of its latest semiconductor fabrication plant. Ohio's Lt. Governor, Jon Husted, joined Meta leaders, school officials, and students at a ribbon cutting ceremony on February 26th, 2024 as a result of the creation of the two labs. [3]

Carver Junior College, in Cocoa, Florida, was established by the Brevard County Board of Public Instruction in 1960 to serve black students, at the same time that it founded Brevard Junior College, now Eastern Florida State College, for white students. It was named for the black agricultural researcher George Washington Carver. Like 10 of Florida's other 11 black junior colleges, it was founded as a result of a 1957 decision by the Florida Legislature to preserve racial segregation in education, mandated under the 1885 Constitution that was in effect until 1968. More specifically, the Legislature wanted to show, in response to the unanimous Supreme Court decision mandating school integration, that the older standard of "separate but equal" educational facilities was still viable in Florida. Prior to this legislative initiative, the only publicly funded colleges for negro or colored students were Florida A&M University, in Tallahassee, and Booker T. Washington Junior College, in Pensacola.
