On October 23rd, UConn proudly hosted its fourth Italian Immersion Day & Quiz Bowl, bringing together talented students for a day of language, culture, and spirited competition. After an exciting series of rounds in the afternoon Quiz Bowl, we congratulate this year’s trophy winners:

 

 

First Place: Holy Cross High School

Second Place: Bristol Central High School
Third Place: Newington High School

 

This event continues to celebrate the richness of Italian language and culture while fostering collaboration and academic excellence among our ECE partner schools. Grazie to all who participated. We can’t wait to see you next year!

 

 

A special shout-out goes to our 2025 MVP, Luis of Plainville High School, who achieved an incredible back-to-back win after earning MVP last year as well!
