This year, a group of Middle Schoolers combined their love of Quiz Bowl and their Latin studies to form the Pegasus Society. Charter members are Ayla Acra '27, Charlie Blau '27, Enno Brandes '27, Ophelia Cherry-Pulay '25, Evan Giles '26, Jackson Green '26, Lila Hemphill '26, Caroline Keiper '25, Flora Li '27, Alice Littlehale '26, Jaymin Pastakia '26, Rohan Ramachandran '25, and Ruchika Ramachandran '27.
The members elected to study Greek mythology and "The Odyssey" or "The Iliad" during their free time. Then most used their research to shine on the American Classical League's National Mythology Exam to impressive results.
Caroline received a perfect score; Evan and Flora received Summa Cum Laude distinction, the highest category. Maxima Cum Laude honors were awarded to Ophelia and Ruchika, Charlie and Rohan received Magna Cum Laude, and Enno, Jackson, and Lila were given Cum Laude distinction.
