Academic Decathlon - THANK YOU
This is a very special THANK YOU to all those who volunteered to assist with the Academic Decathlon this year. More than 80 parents, alumni, and staff were involved in helping out with the event this year. Just one more example of "Sailor Pride" at work. While it's not possible to mention each and everyone who assisted, there are some who deserve special mention. First, the Columbus Academic Booster club members and all the work and time they put into this event. Secondly, to Mr. Dan Kuchera for his work in helping with our scoring. Thirdly, to Mrs. Mary O'Brien for all her work helping to coordinate the speech and interview competition as well as helping with our scoring on Friday. And last, but not least, to Mrs. Nancy Nora for all the time work and effort she put into getting everything lined up and organized. Again, THANK YOU to each and every one of you who gave of your time. It was and is greatly appreciated.
