UIL (University Interscholastic League) A+ Academics Tournament
UIL A+ Academics is an academic competition designed to promote enrichment and a healthy competitive spirit. More than half a million students participate in UIL academic competitions each year in Texas.
In order to begin preparing for the UIL competition, teachers and students in grades 2-5 will build in some enrichment time to practice UIL skills during class. From there, students wishing to continue with the competition will participate in a small run off competition in early December to select the students who will compete at the actual event. We may only send a set number of students to participate in each event, but we want to ensure everyone has the opportunity to try out if they would like. In the spring semester, we will be looking for parent volunteers to help us coach our competitors.
Please look for more information to come home if your child is selected to participate.
