The Sophomore Trivia Night will be held on Jan. 26 to raise money to help fund the class of 2015’s Senior Celebration. Tickets cost $20 for adults and $10 for students and staff.
The doors will open at 6 p.m. and the trivia, which will be announced by Nathan Willard, language arts teacher, will start at 7 p.m. Previous trivia themes have included questions about Lafayette history, questions about St. Louis and even a category in which you have to guess the flavors of jelly beans.
Also, groups will be able to decorate their tables to help raise team spirit.
“In the past a group brought in all of the components for the game Angry Birds,” Assistant Principal Mandy Lewis said. “They would build things with 2×4’s and knock them down with little stuffed birds, then build it back up again.”
In the past, more than 100 people have signed up, and the event raised over $15,000 last year alone through ticket sales, a silent auction and other events and games.
