  • Students who qualify for a team based on their scores in an academic event will compete in the District 21-6A UIL competition in late March. Depending on their placement—either individually or as part of a team—they may advance to the Region 3 competition in late April and the State competition in May. Any student who participates in the UIL State Meet in an academic event at any point during high school is eligible to apply for scholarships as a senior.

    Students interested in competing should contact the teacher listed below and be prepared to dedicate time to studying and preparing for their specific contest. Practice times and study sessions are determined by the coach of the event.
