Ursuline Academy
Hannah Frame
Over the summer, Ursuline Ac
ademy sent 5 delegates to the
National Junior Classical
League convention in Troy, Al
abama. One of our delegates,
Lynn Ahrens, ran for and wa
elected to the national board
s
as Communications Coordin
ator! Jaden Quilty, Kehley
Coleman, Kristen Elsner, and
Allie Hinnenkamp represented
Ursuline well and dominated
academic testing. Ultimately,
all had great showings in a va
riety of events, including:
colloquia, ludi, and olympika
.
Moving to Fall events, Ursulin
e Academy’s Latin Club has
been off to a busy start!
The 2017-2018 school year sta
rted off with our annual club
fair where prospective club
members viewed a glamorou
s poster that show-cased the
club’s involvement at conven
service events, and certamina
tion,
. Shortly thereafter, a secret
ballot was held among the off
to determine which role in the
icers
club each leader would fulfill
. The results were clear: Lynn
Ahrens as President, Kehley
Coleman as Vice President, El
lie Miller as Treasurer, Hann
Frame as Secretary, and Holla
ah
nd Cavanaugh as Historian.
W
ith
their new positions, the
officers began the first activity
of the kickoff club event: an
all school scavenger hunt.
Students raced around the ca
mpus in teams to find 20 facts
related to Roman history, La
grammar, and the Cornelii.
