The NH Classical Association is composed of teachers, professors, and lovers of the classics in the New Hampshire area who are dedicated to promoting the subject in our state. Our board prepares classics days for teachers and students, runs the Warren Held State Exams in mythology and Latin, sponsors a yearly art contest, and promotes the National Junior Classical League. Congratulations to the 2011 state Latin contest winners!
