Good Morning Trumbull High School!
As you probably have heard, our We the People team placed 8th in the Nation at the National Finals this weekend. ! It was an amazing experience. The students testified for 15 minutes in the House Financial Services Committee Hearing Room. Some of their judges were state Supreme Court justices and law school professors. The kids (young adults but “kids” to me) were confident and poised. The judges were impressed with their preparation, knowledge and passion. I’m so proud of all of them! I’ve attached a few pictures from our weekend.
I wanted to thank all those that helped prepare BICEN2013 for their amazing performance – either by helping with our Afternoon of the Experts session, giving pep talks to our class, and being accommodating to the students who missed quite a few days of school.
A special thank you to Mr. Margonis and Ms. Kremzar who chaperoned the trip with me this weekend and helped coached them leading up to the State Championship and National Finals – their help and after school meetings with each of the units was invaluable!
Have a great day!
Katie Boland
