Q: What was the third line of defense built along the northern border of France, starting from Belgium to Switzerland, which was held up through World War I, but bypassed by German forces in World War II.

Q: Who was the father of the atomic bomb?
A: Julius Robert Oppenheimer (answered by Abraham)

Did you get them both right? Morris and Abraham did, two members of Hope International's 2024-2025 Quiz Team did.

The Hope International Quiz Team was the first club that formed on campus. The quiz game is a question-and-answer game in which knowledge or estimation questions are answered and teams compete against other schools throughout the area.

The team is coach by Amb. Bill Frank Bawn, Jr., and captained by student Amar Jusu, who is assisted by student Morris S. Korbah.

During the school year, the 7 members of the team practiced 2 afternoons per week.

While this is a long-term group, this year was a new team. They participated in their first tournament and went as far as the semifinals in the Stars Association of Liberia Quiz Competition.

The team shared what motivates them.

They also shared their favorite memory, "After losing the game against T. Williams School in the semifinals of the Stars Association of Liberia Quiz Competition, we got huge motivation from our coach and the school. Despite being defeated in the semifinals, the school celebrated us for the level we achieved, and that was a great moment for us, which stands out as our favorite memory."

Congratulations to the Hope International Quiz Team for their hard work and great showing this year. We are all behind you.
