2nd Place Qualitative Trophy!
The Qualitative Trophy is based on average number of points per student. This includes academic (including written tests, certamen, art and more) and spirit points totaled together and divided by the number of students.
GMCHE Roll Call - Thursday Night
Roll call is a 45 second introduction to your school. It needs to contain some very basic information and is supposed to be funny. Going with our "Meet the Robinsons" theme (which we thought pertained well to the state convention theme of "Our success is only limited by our imagination"), we had Lewis and the Bowler Hat guy introduce our team:
Our "Meet the Robinsons" contingent after roll call.
We'll find out today how we scored on roll call and many other things.

Certamen Level 1 Finalists! (Friday Night)
We Interrupt Our Attempts at Updating You to Give You an Update
We just found out quite suddenly that our level 1 team, unbeknownst to us, made it to the certamen finals. We may not even get our door decorated in time for that contest because everyone just ran off to cheer on their team.
First Report
Salvete Omnes!
I know this is a little tardy and I can't post pictures yet. We're all doing great and are very excited about our strong delegation. After competing as a "small school" in previous years, we discovered to our surprise that we now rank as a medium-sized school. We learned this when they announced us as the winner of this morning's spirit competition among the medium-sized schools.
Lots of pictures coming soon. We're heading off to certamen competitions (we're competing at levels I, II and IV) and the war machines contest in just a bit.
