My students started their own March Madness this week. First day of the first round had a few upsets, but they just show we haven't gotten to the Civil War yet. ##marchmadness#history
The CMS Scholar Bowl team was in Moberly this weekend. The purple team of Max Dunn, Paige Mulford, and Ashlynn Doll placed sixth, while the gold team of Maddox Sublette, Zoe Funke, Ryka Herbert, and Johnathan Lopez placed third, losing only two rounds. @cmslakers
