JFK’s Scrabble Club makes the News

Students at Northampton join community members at the Lily Library for Scrabble games–this time, Connecting Point featured an article about them.

Evan, mentioned in the news clip, and JFK teammates, Gordon and Robbie just competed in the two-day North American School Scrabble Championship in Philadelphia at the end of April.  Teacher, Ben Greenwood, was asked to direct the event this year and was happy to be able to award the JFK team two trophies:  Highest Losing Score and Highest Play in their division. 


Three weeks earlier, teammates Gordon and Jack had a 5-0 record at the New England School Scrabble Championship in CT.
