On Thursday, March 6, during lunch in room 8-11, club advisors hosted a small awards ceremony for all the students who earned awards to relish their achievements and to celebrate their dedicated work. Pizza was served as well. During this meeting, Academic Decathlon also took a team photo for the yearbook, with the outstanding teamwork and sportsmanship radiating throughout the picture. Everyone was proud of the work they put in for their speeches, interviews, and subject tests, with a semester of studying and consistent team meetings.
Upon earning their awards, Club President, senior Karen Truong stated, “I am so proud for everyone who won, and I really enjoyed my last year being apart of this team.” Club Vice President and Treasurer, senior Simran Dhillon said, “I am really glad we did this small ceremony because it was well-deserved.” With the Highlanders across campus taking wins for a multitude of activities, students of the Academic Decathlon club truly showed their efforts and intelligence, now standing out in a crowd.
