This past Saturday, February 21, 2015, 21 Middle School and 18 Upper School Latin Students spent their Saturday joining 1,200 local area students at the 2015 Texas State Junior Classical League (TSJCL) Area B Convention at Reagan High School. It was an early start and a very long day, but it was so worth it by the time we got to the awards ceremony. Individually the students did well and gained honors for themselves, and collectively the students made TMI proud: the Middle School placed 3rd in sweepstakes Silver division and the Upper School placed 5th in sweepstakes Gold division.
