Greenhill Students Excel at TSJCL Area Competition

Fifty-four Middle School Junior Classical League members participated in the Area C JCL competition at Richardson High School on February 24. These dedicated students put in tremendous effort to prepare for their contests, investing time both at home and during after-school practices. 

In addition to all the ribbons in academic, art, and civilization contests (listed below), our Intermediate Certamen team (Latin Quiz Bowl) won first place against Upper School teams and will represent the DFW area at State in April.
