The Bronze award winners (80th or 75th percentile) were Jeremy Lotrean (level 3PAP), Charlotte Martin (level 3PAP), Rachel Moon (level 3PAP), Harper Moxcey (level AP) and Charissa Wang (level AP). The Honorable mention winners were Nicolas Lane (level 3PAP), Eden McDowell (level 3PAP), and Richa Nag (level AP).

   

“I am so proud of these high achieving students, particularly given how many obstacles that have had in the last year,” said Rebecca Gould, French Teacher at CSHS. The competition is run by the American Association of Teachers of French, and all French students are eligible to participate and compete. The students prepare by doing a practice exam and had the option to do several as bonus work for additional preparation.
