On the evening of Wednesday, April 2, students from around the region gathered in University School of Nashville's Durnan Auditorium to compete in the Regional Great History Challenge competition. You might recall that we had 37 students in sxith, seventh, and eighth grades qualify for these regionals by being in the top 5% of scores nationwide.
Our students took their "home field advantage" to its fullest extent as 12 of the 20 regional qualifiers for the national competition in Orlando, Floridia were USN Tigers, and most of the top 5 scores also call 2000 Edgehill home.
Congratulations to the following National Qualifiers!
Sixth Grade: James Barbieri ’31, Gray Ezell ’31, James Keiper ’31, Lucas Lupu ’31, and Neel Sinha ’31.
Seventh Grade: Rose Doyle ’30 and Reya Roy ’30
Eighth Grade: Clio Cherry-Pulay ’29, Asher Huffman ’29, James Michels ’29, Oren Schwartz ’29, and Vihaan Sinha ’29
