The mission of Davis Academic League is to foster student collaboration in learning, develop and practice academic skills, promote good sportsmanship, build confidence, and create friendships through friendly competition.
Davis Academic League is an inter-school academic competition. Teams of students compete with each other to demonstrate their knowledge of STEM and humanities subjects. Games consist of four quarters, two of which (first and fourth) are based on questions answered by individual students. In the second quarter, a group of students from each team race against each other to solve a problem or answer a question. The third quarter assesses the knowledge, logic, and communication skills of students as they make presentations and answer questions on a topic assigned approximately a week earlier.
The teams are divided into two divisions, each or which produces a champion to compete against the other for the district title. Teams of students are led by a teacher-coach who supports and mentors them.
Typically, the Davis Academic League season runs from January through March.
Regular Season Schedule
Games begin at 3:15 and usually end around 4:30. Games 1-3 are played in conference. Games 4 and 5 are played against out-of-conference teams; one at home and the other away.
