Academic District 15-AAA Champions

New Boston has a long tradition of excellence in the University Interscholastic League Academic contests. We have won the district trophy 19 of the last 21 years. New Boston is well represented at region and state contests in many events each year. We pride ourselves on individual and team achievements. The University Interscholastic League offers the most comprehensive literary and academic competitive program in the nation. It offers more than any other UIL division in terms of activities, with 22 high school and 18 elementary and junior high contests. More than a half million students participate in UIL academic contests.

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.
