As part of the Benjamin Franklin Classical Charter Public School’s commitment to classical education, our students in grades 3-8 receive instruction in Latin. This year, on May 29th, students in grades six and eight were recognized for their achievements on the National Latin Exam.
Grade Eight students participated in The National Latin Exam, which is technically a high school level exam for Latin I. This year, BFCCPS students have earned three Gold Medal recipients, which is a record accomplishment! BFCCPS students have also been awarded four Silver Medals, five Magna cum Laude and seven Cum Laude Awards. We are so pleased and proud of the students’ accomplishments as this marks an unprecedented amount of eighth grade Awards.
