04/29/09 PRESS RELEASE: We The People - National Competition

Hi all,

Seems Tony Mullen wasn't the only GPS representation in Washington D.C.
this week!

The GHS 'We The People' Team made it to the National Competition after a
series of county and State competitions. They made it through all early
rounds in DC, and reached the Top 10 finals on Monday, April 27, 2009. At
this point, they are still waiting for their final results/standing,
however they do know that they were not 1st, 2nd, or 3rd. Still, a
fantastic finish and a great experience for all involved.

This is the We The People web page, describing the program and if you
scroll to the bottom, watch the video clip, it features many of the
Greenwich students: http://www.civiced.org/index.php?page=wtp_introduction

Aaron Hull, GHS History teacher and recently named Distinguished Teacher,
is the group's advisor/mentor on this project.


He may be reached at: aaron_hull@greenwich.k12.ct.us or 625-8847

Thanks!
Kim
