On April 21, the school poetry team competed at the 11th Annual Classic Slam in the Dynasty Typewriter Theater, taking third place in their assigned room.
The Classic Slam involves performing an original poem listed within the Get Lit 2021-22 Anthology and a poem written in response. Poet responses were scored on a decimal system in three categories: content, performance, and connection to the original poem. Each field was scored up to 10 points with an additional three for original poem accuracy.
