Back
For its second consecutive year, University School of Nashville was well represented in this year’s National History Bee regional competition. After having 17 of 17 students qualify for the regional bee, 14 students in sixth, seventh, and eighth grades went to Freedom Middle School in Franklin to compete against other students from the region. After a long day of buzzer round questions, nine students emerged as qualifiers for the National Competition this summer in Chicago. Please join me in celebrating the effort and success of all of the participants. I could not be more proud.
