Welcome to the UIL Academics information page! (Updated 9.1.2022)
From the UIL:
"The University Interscholastic League offers the most comprehensive program of academic competition in the nation. UIL Academics offers more activities than any other UIL division, with 30 contests at the high school level and 20 A+ Academic contests for grades 2-8. More than half a million students participate in UIL academic contests each year. These activities, which exist to complement the academic curriculum, are designed to motivate students as they acquire higher levels of knowledge, to challenge students to confront issues of importance, and to provide students with the opportunity to demonstrate mastery of specific skills. Students are challenged to think critically and creatively, exhibiting much more than knowledge and comprehension."
At Champion HS, we have a highly successful UIL Academics program, sending teams and/or individuals to the Regional and State meets every year.
Events include the following, listed by official academic subject (with coach):
Math: Calculator Applications, Math, Number Sense (Mrs. Steward, B221)
Social Studies: Social Studies, Current Events (Coach Gillette, A218)
Speech and Debate: CX Debate, Lincoln-Douglas Debate, Informative Speaking, Persuasive Speaking, Poetry Interpretation, and Prose Interpretation. (Mr. Reischling, B249)
Starting in September of each year, we will participate in virtual meets against other students from across Texas, and then we have invitational meets (1 or 2) in the spring before our district meet in March.
For any questions about UIL Academics, see the coach listed above, or come see Mr. Moseley in room B170.
