Academic Decathlon

Academic Decathlon

Welcome to the Jordan High School Academic Decathlon website. Jordan High School opened its doors in 2020 and is the ninth high school in the Katy Independent School District - located in Katy, Texas (we are a city just west of Houston). We look forward to another exciting school year and a successful AD season.

Program Description from the USAD website:
"The Academic Decathlon® is a ten-event scholastic competition for teams of high school students. Each high school enters a team of nine students: 3 "A" or Honor students, 3 "B" or Scholastic students, and 3 "C" or Varsity students.

Academic Decathlon® is a team competition wherein students match their intellects with students from other schools. Students are tested in ten categories:
Art, Economics, Essay, Interview, Language and Literature, Mathematics, Music, Science, Social Science, and Speech.

Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals are awarded for individual events and total scores. Winning teams advance through the local, regional, and state levels of competition. The state champions compete at the national finals.

If you are interested in trying out for next year's Warrior Decathlon team, contact either of the coaches.
