The Academic Decathlon is a
team competition wherein students match their intellects with students from
other schools. Students are tested in ten categories: Art, Economics, Essay,
Interview, Language/Literature, Mathematics, Music, Science, Social Studies, and
Speech. Like the decathlon athletic contest, the Academic Decathlon encourages
academic versatility by requiring students to prepare for all ten events. The
Academic Decathlon stresses educational opportunity and academic excellence. The
program requires participation of students with a broad range of Grade-Point
Averages, so curious students are encouraged to join regardless of their GPA
standing. |
