Sean Kesluk ’09 was selected to be the vice president of the Junior Classical League in California. He was initially recruited in seventh grade by a fellow Mirman alumnus.

Kesluk participated in the national convention last summer.

“I am in charge of the people at nationals, run California’s participation in the ‘Spirit Competition,’ and make sure the gears run smoothly in California,” Kesluk said.

The Junior Classical League comprises Latin students and teachers who “share in the common bond of maintaining the life of a language that is considered ‘dead,’” Kesluk said.

The organization is supplemented by regional, state, and national conventions involving academic, athletic, and artistic competitions.
