The goal of the Small/Medium/Large School Online Competition is to enhance learning, growth and recognition of Academic Decathlon to more schools and students. A state must have a current Academic Decathlon program. School enrollment of competing online schools: -- not to exceed 650 (grades 9-12) for a small school -- not to exceed 1,300 (grades 9-12) for a medium school -- enrollment of 1301 or higher for a large school Schools participating in the small/medium/large school competitions must not be the same team participating in the USAD® National Finals. Teams in each competing state will be selected and certified by the State Director. (The National Office will do the certification if a state does not have a State Director.) Date of the competition will be held the same days as the National competition. Number of events (8): Essay, Language & Literature, Art, Music, Math, Science/Social Science, Economics and Super Quiz. Please feel free to contact Mylene Chafe, USAD® Director of Operations, with any questions.
