Sophomore Clara Pressey presented her final to her classmates and teachers. Her instructor, Ms. Macdonald, felt it was above and beyond the expectations of any high school student. Ms. Pressey's paper, "Epics and Identity: False Strength and Raw Identity" brought forth man's desire to know thyself through epics.
Merry Christmas from Twin Peaks Classical Academy!
