Volunteer judges are needed to judge student performances on Saturday, February 20 for the Annual Academic Decathlon.
The Annual Academic Decathlon is a nationwide competition that promotes academic excellence through teamwork. Students of all achievement levels are tested
on various subjects, such as Art, Economics, Music, Language Arts and Literature, Mathematics, Science, and Social Science. Proficiency in Speech, Interview,
and Essay writing is included as well. Students receive training and coaching throughout the school year in preparation to compete on a citywide and national
stage. The specific content varies from year to year and is determined by the United States Academic Decathlon (USAD) Board of Directors. The 2020 topic is
The Cold War.
To ensure the safety of everyone and to prevent the spread of COVID-19, the competition and volunteer roles have adopted a virtual format. This year they
