Latin Students Get Creative for National Writing Contest
Each year the National Junior Classical League offers a creative writing contest. This year’s prompt was to write a letter from the point of view of a Roman historical figure or Greco-Roman mythological character: the contest is partly a research project and partly a creative writing effort.
Congratulations to the St. Andrew’s Upper School Latin students who were nationally recognized for their written work!
