Five students took part in this year’s National German Exam, sponsored by the American Association of Teachers of German. Jack Zoellick (2nd year) and Connor Hawes earned gold medals and a place on the AATG National Honor Roll for scores above the 90th percentile. Jack Zoellick’s score was among the top 1% nationwide, and earned him the right to compete for a scholarship for a three-week study trip to Germany this summer. He has advanced to the national level of competition on the basis of an interview with college German instructors in both German and English, an application and recommendation from his German teacher, Kim Schneider. As a former resident of Germany, Connor Hawes was evaluated in comparison with other students who have had immersion experiences in German. Ava-Lynn Clyde (4th year) and Bradley Vick (2nd year) earned Achievement Awards for above average scores nationwide at their respective levels.
