Support Alaska’s Academic Decathlon/Pentathlon Programs!
There are lots of wonderful academic competitions where students can prove they are the best in any given subject. Academic Decathlon (High School) and Pentathlon (Middle School) aren’t about any of that. This program isn’t about mastering a single subject, but ten different skills and disciplines.
Most importantly, the Academic Decathlon programs challenge students to work at their individual best and as an integral part of a team composed of students with different skill and ability levels.
Here, in Alaska, the Academic Decathlon/Pentathlon programs engages students from Ketchikan to the North Slope Borough and is a statewide program that:
- Creates our state’s future leaders
- Rewards academic achievements
- Brings together teams – comprised of students of all GPA levels - from around the state
- Sends our winning team to represent Alaska at the United States Academic Decathlon and the Academic Pentathlon National Competitions
