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.
