Academic Decathlon® isn’t about mastering a single event, but ten different skills and disciplines. Every Academic Decathlon competition, whether it’s a local round or the national finals, will follow the same multidisciplinary format.
LEARN MOREAcademic Decathlon has provided me with focus, with inspiration, with friends, with culture. I don't know where I'd be without what I've learned from Decathlon, most of which transcends the curricula themselves.
Academic Decathlon provided me with the tools I needed for academic success. Not only did my performance in AcDec improve, my performance in school improved immensely as well.
Learning how to study is only half of what Academic Decathlon is about. The other half is about learning to make connections with teammates and having fun doing it.
"That was the highlight of my high school career,” "The whole school got a boost. I had students coming up to me saying, 'I'm proud of you.’ Academic Decathlon experience affirmed a solid work ethic ."You really figured out, that it paid off to set a goal and study hard.”
