Academic Decathlon

Academic Decathlon is one of the premier academic competitions in the nation, and we're proud to offer students at Frenship Memorial the opportunity to be part of this intellectually exciting experience. It’s more than just a competition, it’s a journey of academic growth, team-building, and personal development.


Each year, the United States Academic Decathlon (USAD) announces a new theme; this year’s theme is The Roaring Twenties. Based on that theme, students prepare for rigorous exams in ten different subject areas, including:

  • Art

  • Economics

  • Literature

  • Mathematics

  • Music

  • Science

  • Social Science

  • Speech

  • Interview

  • Essay
