Capturing the third place title in the Certamen held at Jefferson High School, Latin Team members Bob Ward. Pete Ward, Melissa Burroughs, and Mary Beth Wrooten acclaimed pride in Latin achievement. Different Certamens were held during the year, and were conducted similarly to “It's Academic,” only on the Latin subject. Members of the Latin Team had to research and study grammar and poetry of Latin prior to attending the Certamen. Any student who signed up in Ms. Barteimes’ room could participate in the Certamen, but to be a member of the Latin Honor Society one had to have an overall 3.0 and a current 3.5 and be at least in his second year of Latin. As a service to the school, the Latin Honor Society tutored lower level students having trouble. Any in- terested student could be a member of the Latin Club. Topping the year with the traditional picnic at Burke Lake, members of the Latin Team, Latin Honor Society, and the Latin Club saluted another year of determination and enjoyment in the ancient tongue and civilization. Pat Burns questions Latin Honor Society students on the meaning of the words on the board after a meeting. 336 Latin Honor Society
