Academic Decathlon
Academic Decathlon competes on the county level with 41 teams for individual and team awards. We compete in essay, speech, interview, art, economics, literature, math, music, science and superquiz. This year we came in 12th and several students scored in the top ten for some of the competitions. We start practicing and studying in September and the competition is in January/ February.
