This weekend, our 7th grade quiz bowl team (Michael McAusland, Michael Wang, Clare Peng & Darren Xu) underwent a grueling 10 hours of tournament play in a national academic bowl competition. Today (Sunday), they were given three categories to take on 6-questions in a rapid fire section of the tournament.

 

Great job! 

 


 

Last Wednesday (before the storm), 14 of our 8th graders competed in the 2nd Annual WMS Virtual Forensics Competition.

 

Forensics (public speaking) is the process or act of performing a speech to a live audience. This type of speech is deliberately structured with three general purposes: to inform, to persuade and to entertain.    

 

Our students have been preparing since October and finally had a chance to perform their pieces in front of seven seasoned judges, including our own RICKY BARDY!! Thank you, Ricky for your time and talents again! Other judges included WMS alumni, Neelesh Thanasegaran & Inica Kotasthane, Arianna Salerno from Mount St. Mary, former high school forensics champ, Joe Donohue, plus Mrs. Cirrotti's children, Connor & Colleen. Such an amazing group effort ~

Do you have a library card for the Somerset County Library System?

SCLSNJ library cards allow students to access not only the physical materials that are in all ten of the branches, but also the eBook and eAudiobook collections, as well as the databases and other digital resources (including test prep, language learning, and more!).

 

If you do not have a card yet, it’s easy to get one! Ask your parent or caregiver to fill out the form, and SCLSNJ will mail the library card to the student’s home.
