(If you are registering more than one school you will be asked to upload or email a spreadsheet/document of all your schools instead of entering them online.) ESSAY RUBRIC: USAD has developed a new Essay rubric to assist our judges in their job of scoring our decathlete’s essays. Additionally, if you would like to participate in Essay during Round 2 but don’t have your own judges, USAD can score for $5 per essay. If you are interested, please contact the State Director ASAP. Click here to download the rubric. PROMOTIONAL VIDEO: About 10 years ago, we produced a promotional video that can be used to recruit coaches, and explain decathlon to administration, parents and prospective decathletes. The video is a little dated, but the main information is still relevant today: https://vimeo.com/868745801 Additionally, USAD has three videos posted in the footer section of their website which can also be used to promote Academic Decathlon. GAD FALL WORKSHOP : Friday, September 13 – Our collegiate partner, Kennesaw State University, hosts our Fall Workshop for coaches, coordinators, and decathletes. Sessions will be offered for many of the decathlon events and they will be designed for members of your team to gain information on the curriculum topic as well as other aspects of competition. The workshop is free for adults and $20 for each decathlete. The registration deadline is August 29th. All the information can be found on the Fall Workshop page. PLEASE NOTE: Information about Academic Decathlon, the curriculum topics, and how to order curriculum materials can be found on the United States Academic Decathlon website www.usad.org . You are encouraged to check the website often for information and curriculum updates. Click here to see a topical outline of the 2024-2025 curriculum. USAD 2024-2025 CURRICULUM: Curriculum outlines and the Study Guide for 2024-2025 are available on the USAD website. The curriculum for this year is Our Changing Climate . Please check the USAD website ( www.usad.org ) for a complete listing of curriculum materials. If you have not ordered your curriculum materials, you should do so right away. Check the USAD website for information regarding curriculum updates . Check the PAGE GAD website ( www.pageinc.org/gad ) for information about the PAGE GAD academic year. ACADEMIC ELECTIVE: Each year a few more schools and school districts are able to offer the Academic Decathlon curriculum through an academic elective course. This is a rich and challenging curriculum that should be made available to a larger group of students than the nine students that typically make up your GAD team. This year’s curriculum theme would be a great theme for an independent study class, a guided study, or any number of other possible classes. The USAD curriculum has been coordinated with Common Core Standards. Georgia Academic Decathlon is looking forward to working with teams during the 2024-2025 academic year. We hope to see all coaches, district-level coordinators, and decathletes at the 2024 Fall Workshop on Sept 13.
