n-,nl Star Light.Stur Bfig-Ill.: Superquiz Stars Succeed Two hundred and fifty honor stu- dents competed in the Second Annu- al Academic Decathalon on Novem- ber 7, l98l. One might think that such a large amount of students, forming teams, representing 25 dif- ferent high schools, all participating in highly competitive events would resemble a track meet. Not this time. This year's Superquiz Stars from North overcame the challenge of the defending West High, Academic . ll2 Academic Decathlon Decathalon champs in the Super- quiz, an area of intellectual competi- tion that focused on our energy con- cerns - and won the Superquiz! Students were chosen to compete in the Academic Decathalon - a mind-exercising event - by a panel of teachers based on the student PSAT test scores, grades, and ability to succeed in competitive academic tests and oral presentations. Chosen students not only relied on knowl- edge already acquired, but also met each morning with teachers in tutori- al sessions and spent endless addi- tional hours studying supplementary references at home to broaden their knowledge. During the Academic Decathalon, students were tested in English, lit- erature, fine arts, mathematics, physical and biological sciences, so- cial sciences, career education, speech making and essay writing.
