UIL A+ Academics FAQ (grades 2-8 competition)
- How do I know when UIL A+ Academic competition will be held?
- A+ Academic competition (students in grades 2-8) is scheduled locally amongst participating campuses. The UIL provides a timeline of when competition materials may be used and campuses decide what works best for them.
- Which campuses are in my A+ Academic district?
- This is a local decision. Campuses in A+ Academic are not bound to an alignment. They may choose to follow their high school alignment or decide to organize another way that makes the most sense.
- When may district meet materials be used?
- Fall/winter district materials may be used starting December 1- January 31. Spring district materials may be used starting February 2- May 23. Confidentiality of material is of upmost importance. Materials for all competition (invitational and district) are provided for free and requested by meet directors.
- Does the UIL supply awards for A+ academic competitions?
- No. The awards given are a local decision, and the UIL encourages campuses to look into local vendors.
- Who may assist with a UIL academic program?
- The UIL contest rules do not limit who may assist with a program, so this is a local decision.
