Eight sixth graders traveled to Washington, D.C. to compete in their first Scrabble tournament at the Janney School.  Eighty students from eleven schools competed in this tournament.  Our girls competed in divisions C and D, designed with little or no Scrabble competition experience.

NDP’s students did very well.  The teams of Drew Yager/Annie Brown and Gabby Kastrunes/Anna Zittle each won two of their four games.  Gabby/Anna also won the prize for high word in their division- 78 points for “goalies.” The team of Mina Park/Lauren Waibel earned a prize for third place (3 wins, 1 loss), and the team of Kate Walsh/Maggie Alexander won all four games and the first place prize!

Congratulations!
