    Peru Blog

    Experience the journey of our students, parents and teachers who were traveling in Peru!  During their trip they helped to build a sewer line for a girls dormitory.  This act of service so affected the students that with a help of an anonymous donor and plans for the students to raise money, they purchased 22 mattresses, pillows, sheets, and blankets for this same group.  What a truly amazing group of students.  Find out more by clicking the link below.

    French

    Currently, French III is reading Le Comte de Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas in the original French.  This swashbuckling thriller has us sitting on the edge of our seat until the last ounce of revenge is exacted as we move to the last page of this fabulous 19th century adventure novel.

     

    English

    Earlier this month, Upper School students from each English class participated in the Shakespeare Monologue Competition. Each year, all Upper School students memorize and recite a Shakespearean monologue in class competitions across campus. Champions from each class come together to compete for a chance to represent Clarksville Academy in Nashville at the Regional Shakespeare Monologue Competition organized by the English Speaking Union of the United States. There, students from various schools from around the mid-state vie for one coveted spot in the National Shakespeare Competition in New York City. We had some incredible performances this year, and our panel of expert judges (including two theatre professionals and a Shakespeare scholar) named junior Maggie Clark as the school winner this year. This is Maggie’s second time being crowned champion, and she will take her rendition of Queen Margaret from Henry VI, Part 3 to Belmont’s Troutt Theatre on Saturday, March 3. Break a leg, Maggie!

    Tournament Information

    Tuesday, February 13 begins the Region Basketball Tournament for both girls’ varsity team.  The first round of tournament play for our girls will be held at Franklin Road Academy. They will tip at 6:00 PM and take on FRA.  We invite everyone to travel to FRA and cheer on our girls! The rest of the tournament will be played at Web School in Bell Buckle, TN.

    The varsity boys will play at HOME on Wednesday, February 14 at 6PM.  They will also play FRA. Tickets for the game are $7 at the door (your Cougar Pass does not work for tournament games).  Students will get in FREE!  We have had a kind donor step up and offer to pay for all students to attend the game.  This game will be a WHITE OUT, so we ask that all fans wear white to show your support of our team.

    The rest of the tournament for both girls and boys will be at Webb School in Bell Buckle, TN.  A win tonight, guarantees both teams 3 additional games.  Both our teams greatly appreciate your support and need it!  Please come out and cheer on our teams!
