Academic Superbowl
Academic Super Bowl provides students a chance to have fun learning about topics that they may not get to in regular classes. Each year, students compete in teams against other schools to show what they have learned on a specific topic. There are five subjects represented: English, Science, Math, Fine Arts, and Social Studies. There are three competitions each spring, and teams who qualify for state travel to Purdue in May to compete for the state title in each subject. Anyone can join and there is no fee to participate!
