March 18, 2021 - High school students in Shelbyville ISD will compete for top honors during the 2021 District 23AA UIL Academic Spring Meet to be held on March 24th at SFASU. The UIL Academic District Meets bring students together to compete in over 23 college level academic contests that cover every aspect of classroom curriculum. These students meet rigorous scholastic requirements in order to voluntarily compete in UIL academics. Contestants compete for individual honors while schools compete for the district championship. Individual winners have an opportunity to advance to the regional competition and the state meet. No other program in the nation challenges students with the same rigor as UIL Academics.
