Forty-five students represented Tampa Prep at the 70th annual Florida State Latin Forum at the Wyndham International in Orlando. There were 48 schools participating, and over 1200 students present.
Unlike previous years, this year the Upper and Middle Divisions were separated into two delegations meaning Tampa Prep had a Junior delegation (27 students in grades 6- 8) and Senior delegation (18 students in grades 9 - 12).
Competitions ranged from a school spirit contest to advanced Latin prose and poetry. Our delegation mastered a menagerie of creative and academic topics. They also exhibited their physical prowess in various Olympic events.
Junior Division Sweepstakes came in third place in creatives and seventh overall. Tampa Prep Standard came in sixth place in Legio VI Victrix division. The following students placed this year:
