The Academic Team is a vibrant group of students from
all grade levels who compete on a weekly basis against schools from around the city in matches designed to test both knowledge of fact as well as trivia.
The matches have three distinct components:
- Alphabet Round: Twenty questions each beginning with the same letter of the alphabet
- Team Round: Broad variety of questions such as American government, English literature, physical science, math, fine arts,
English literature, life science, and world history.
- Lightning Round: Thirty rapid-fire questions up for grabs by either team.
