Earlier this semester Latin students in Forms 6-11 participated in the third online contest sponsored by the American Classical League, the National Latin Vocabulary Exam (NLVE).
Open to students in Forms 7-12, the NLVE is designed to test a student's knowledge of Latin vocabulary (nouns, verbs, numbers, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, etc.) and is based solely on specific lists of Latin vocabulary relevant to a particular student's level of Latin. Students have 45 minutes to answer 70 questions.

This year, student Amruta Patel '26 attained gold medals on all three contests.
