LATIN
DECLAMATIO
(November,
2004) The
RMS and RHS Latinists recently competed against 15 schools
in the Second Annual Suffolk County Classical Association's
Declamatio held at SUNY-Stony Brook. In this competition,
Latin students prepare a memorized passage from ancient Latin
literature and then recite it dramatically to the judges and
audience.
The Riverhead students competed on two levels: Pre-Regents
and Advanced. The Pre-Regents were divided into 7 and 8 and
9 through 12.
Here's what Riverhead won:
Pre-Regents
RMS
1st Place- Colin Palmer
3rd Place - Peter Cybulski

RHS
3-way tie for 1st Place -

Jayson Kratoville
Menyon Harrell
Advanced
RHS

3rd Place - James VunKannon
“We took 7 out of 9 places! We were amazing!”
states RMS Latin teacher Lorene Custer.
