Francisco Canales: What RUMPUS Means to Me

Rumpus
I have been to several schools before. Each one has its own perks, but Darlington is, by far, the most well-rounded school I've ever been enrolled in.
 
One of the things that distinguishes Darlington above other schools is its social life. Many students come together during RUMPUS, a weekend full of excitement and competition. It only happens once a year and it cannot be described with words. You have to experience it to know what it truly is, but basically the six houses of the school compete in several events to prove who is the fittest. Everyone comes together, including faculty.

RUMPUS weekend has been one of the best weekends of my life. If there is something I am sure I will never forget about my high school times, it is RUMPUS.
