What is Academic Decathlon?
The Decathlon is an in-person team competition. Eligibility includes teams that won their regional competition and at-large teams invited based on their overall team score. This rigorous competition features seven multiple-choice exams, two performance events (speech and interview), an essay, and the thrilling Super Quiz – a fast-paced team competition. By participating in the Decathlon, students experience the excitement of in-person competition, enhance their teamwork and communication skills, and represent their school at the highest level. Teams that win at the California state level advance to the national finals, with California having consecutively held the national title since 2003.
