Sunday Spotlight: UIL Academics

Royal High School UIL Academics competitors have performed extremely well in recent years, with several Falcons advancing to the state level. This year, Royal Junior High, Royal STEM Academy, and Royal Elementary students have the fun, and we could not be prouder of them. Thank you to our UIL Academics coaches for all your hard work and for helping our Falcons soar to new heights! #WeAreRoyal #InvestingInOurTomorrow

The University Interscholastic League offers the most comprehensive program of academic competition in the nation. UIL Academics offers more activities than any other UIL division, with 30 contests at the high school level and 20 A+ Academic contests for grades 2-8. More than half a million students participate in UIL academic contests each year. These activities, which exist to complement the academic curriculum, are designed to motivate students as they acquire higher levels of knowledge, to challenge students to confront issues of importance, and to provide students with the opportunity to demonstrate mastery of specific skills. Students are challenged to think critically and creatively, exhibiting much more than knowledge and comprehension.
