Mr. Kropp Awards "The Scripture Cup" to 12 Freshmen
In Mr. Kropp's religion classes, earning good grades is not the only incentive to performing well on tests and quizzes - there is a trophy at stake. Mr. Kropp's four sections of freshman religion classes have spent the Spring semester competing for "The Scripture Cup," a commemorative trophy presented to the section with the highest class average at the end of the semester.

Mr. Kropp first introduced the cup to his classes three years ago, when he noticed that interest levels were declining as the weather improved in the Spring semester. He has found the friendly competition has added fun and motivation to the semester. The winners of the cup have their names added to the trophy, are given keep-sake certificates, and have "bragging rights" for the end of the year. This year's cup was awarded to the section nicknamed "The 12 Apostles," a class of 12 students.
