MINNESOTA ACADEMIC DECATHLON

Minnesota Academic Decathlon

Would you like to go to Honolulu, Hawaii in 2007? Get a MNAD team together and join us for a chance to send your team to the National Competition in Honolulu, Hawaii. The curricular theme for the 2006–2007 year is “China and Its Influence on the World.”

Academic Decathlon is a challenging educational experience, teaching life skills—such as hard work, teamwork, perseverance, and goal setting—all valuable and used in all facets of life. The Academic Decathlon emphasizes the personal and academic growth of each student who, by meeting the challenges with honesty and integrity, can reap the rewards of greater self-knowledge and self-confidence for the future.

We have taken the liberty to note the competition dates for 2006–2007. The Regional MNAD Competition will be held at the Midwest Wireless Civic Center, in Mankato on January 30, 2007. The State MNAD Competition will be held at Cragun’s Resort and Conference Center in Brainerd, March 5–6, 2007. The National USAD competition will be held in Honolulu, Hawaii, April 25–28, 2007. Get your grass skirts ready and join us for the fun!
