Academic Rally


Each year students, based upon their academic achievements, are nominated by teachers to participate in the Academic Rally. From this exceptional group of students, teams of three are selected to attend the Northwest Louisiana Academic Rally at Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. Students are tested and receive an individual score. Students with the highest scores may be chosen to compete at the State Academic Rally at LSU in Baton Rouge. Membership Requirements: Students must receive a teacher nomination based upon their final grade in the course to be finalized by the Rally Committee to form a team of three with one alternate. Students cannot be enrolled in the next level class. The committee also considers the student's discipline reports.
