AboutUSAD provides students of all learning levels the opportunity to excel academically through team competition.
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 and Literature, Mathematics, Music, Science, Social Science, and Speech.
Gold, Silver and Bronze medals are awarded for individual events and total scores. Each high school enters a team of nine students: 3 "A" or Honor students, 3 "B" or Scholastic students, and 3 "C" or Varsity students. Winning teams advance through the local, regional, and state levels of competition. The state champions compete at the national finals.
This is a community for fellow decathletes to discuss the subjects and complain about all the work we have to put in. Enjoy!
1. Please hide pictures behind LJ-cuts, especially if they are large. Some people's connections are not super-fast, and it is a courteous and kind thing to do.
2. Please do not post pictures that are not work/school safe. If you absolutely must, please hide them behind an LJ-cut that says so.
3. Try to stay on the topic of Academic Decathlon, even if it's a loose association.
4. Please do not flame. Offensive comments and entries will be deleted.
