2/3/24 @ Boston Latin School: Three teams of four adventured towards the roar. Three teams of four attempted to conquer their scores. Another heroic attempt made by WHS JCLers to bring home rewards: a proud Magistra DeCamp, amongst others, for fighting off the hoards. The results, m'lord? Novice in 8th, and their comrades in Advanced and Intermediate in 5th.

3/23/24 @ Harvard University: On this day in history, 10 members of the Winchester JCL attended Harvard Certamen! Players answered tough questions on language, history, culture, and mythology, sharpening their Latin skills and buzzing their way to the top alongside some of the best teams in the country. The day started with a meaningful opening speech from Professor Emily Greenwood about how students can apply their knowledge of the Classics to analyze history and expand their understanding of the world. Afterward, each team racked up points in three cutthroat rounds of certamen. We had lunch in Harvard Square before rushing back to watch the intermediate semifinal round. Intermediate ended in 6th place, advanced in 22nd place, and novice in 10th place. Everybody enjoyed putting their knowledge to use in a tough competition, learning Latin and leaving Winchester logos on Harvard blackboards along the way! (Written by Chloe Silbermann).
