Trinity Middle School Academic Bowl Team places 2nd in Region and Advances to State
By Samantha DePriest
This week our Middle School Academic Bowl Team attended a regional GAPPS Academic Competition in LaGrange. TCS Academic Bowl Coaches Mrs. Abby Akins & Mrs. Kiley Huddleston are excited about this new Academic Bowl Team for the 2022-23 school year. The team is comprised of students who excel in various academic subjects and popular topics. Students compete in Jeopardy-style regional competitions. They are chosen for the team based upon their total score on a Google Forms Tryout Test and Teacher recommendation.
