13 students from the Thomasville Scholars Academy Junior Classical League attended the State Conventional Rock Eagle 4-H Center, in Eatonton, Georgia. While there, they competed in academic testing, Certamen (Latin quiz bowl), athletic events, and much more. These students met many Latin students from all over Georgia. Some students also participated in a service project by helping Project Linus make blankets for children in need. The Scholars Academy Latin Club had multiple students who won academic and many other students that won athletic awards; the club itself won numerous Club of the Month awards while there. Going to the State Convention was an amazing experience for all of these Latin students that they will never forget. Here are a few testimonies:
“What I loved about Convention this year was how close I got with my fellow students.” -Laramie S.
"Convention was an amazing experience, where we all learned many things about the Classics. We got the opportunity to get closer as a group and compete in many academic events. I can’t wait to do it again next year." -Rose Lehman
“Obviously, the best part of this year's State Convention was the baby geese.”
-Julianna G.
