Latin Students Attend Classics Day
|
Students from ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏÍø Middle School and ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏÍø High School visited Stony Brook University for "Classics Day." They attended lectures about linguistics, ancient medicine, and etymology, participated in the creation of mosaics and paper togas, and taught board games to other students. Some students participated in three levels of a "Certamen" academic contest on Latin grammar and Roman culture against twelve other schools from Long Island New York City. The Level One class from ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏÍø Middle School were the only 8th grade team to make the final round. A team of juniors and seniors from ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏÍø High School placed 2nd overall.
