<p class="fontlook2"><B>Carrollton Students Take Top Honors at
Annual Spanish Oral Invitational</B>

<p class="fontlook">Carrollton students in grades 6-8 participated in the Spanish Oral Invitational on Saturday, April 12th.  The competition is organized by Belen Jesuit Prep School every year during Spring time and typically ten schools are involved:  Belen, Epiphany, Our Lady of Lourdes, Ransom, St. Brendan’s, St. Kevin, St. Michael, St. Theresa, St. Thomas, and Carrollton.  This year our students excelled in the Poetry Recital Category. At the end a “grand prize” of the invitational is awarded to the top two schools.  The top two schools are selected based on a point system.  Every participant is judged and given a number of points. These points are added up and the total number represents the success of each school.  The 2 schools with the greatest number of points win the honor of being recognized as the top 2 schools in the competition.  This year, Carrollton was awarded 1st and Belen was 2nd.
