Q: How long have you been preparing for the Scholars Bowl?
Smith: I have done Scholars Bowl since middle school, and we have practice Monday through Thursday for most of fall and winter.
Q: What do you love about competing against other schools?
Smith: I’m a competitive person, I guess, so I like the atmosphere surrounding competitions. Also, we have a supportive team and good coaches.
Q: Not only you are in the Scholar’s Bowl, but you are also co-president of the French Club. What activities are there in French Club?
Smith: We try to focus more on the cultural aspects of French and France that we don’t have time to learn about in French class. Mainly, we play a lot of games and do fun activities like in our last Halloween meeting.
Q: About our next speaker, who is he, and where is he from?
Smith: Our next speaking is going to be talking about Haiti and the situation there. Hurricane Matthew has seriously damaged the already struggling country.
Q: What can we do for those who were affected by Hurricane Matthew?
Smith: Our French Club is looking to organize a fundraiser or a school supply drive to help the children in Haiti. More details are coming soon!
