Not a prize-winning door, but a well-scoring door nevertheless, which helped us achieve our 1st place spirit trophy among the small schools.

Our entry in the war machines contest. If you look carefully, you can see the projectile in the upper right hand corner of the picture. Unfortunately this one didn't place in the contest, but it was very impressive.

One More Costume!

Costumes!

This group includes most of our costume entries - namely two Niobes (who came in 1st and 3rd in the girls' costume contest) and Paris and Helen (aiming in the artistic direction of Greek pottery) who came in 2nd in the couples' costume contest.

Constellation Masks
