 NGHS Certamen
10 Championships and counting...
We come to play!  Certamen is like quiz bowl, but all about Latin and Roman topics.  Three teams of up to four players compete in tournaments to answer twenty questions (with two bonus questions to each correct toss-up).  North Gwinnett has built quite a reputation as one of the most competitive schools in the state, and we aim to win every tournament we enter.
