This last week was the final tournament of year for our wonderful student: Tournament of Champions — the largest and hardest tournament that middle schoolers can compete in each year. This year has been filled with challenges, no doubt the largest challenge being that everything is remote and done online.
Regardless, our determined and hard working students went forth and did their very best at a tournament with over 500 students in Public Forum and 150 in Lincoln Douglas.

Most of the Public Forum teams broke even and were very close to breaking, but unfortunately we did not have any advance to the out rounds.
On the Lincoln Douglas side of things, Annie Jiang advanced to double octofinals and Sarah Chen advanced to octofinals!
Additionally, Annie was 10th place speaker overall and Sarah was 14th overall! Kudos to them!

And for Congress, we have Fiona Zhou awarded in 4th place and Lindsey Jiang got 4th place, what a great job!!

I would like to thank all of you and our students on behalf of all of the Kudos staff and teams for your support for our hard working students this past year. While it would have been preferable to have this year done in person, we are so proud of the students meeting the challenge of remote learning head on and doing their best all year with great success.
