Extraordinary Results at PSIA Contest

The District 12AA PSIA Academic Competition took place on Saturday, March 24th, at Trinity Lutheran School. Students representing many private schools as well as homeschools participated in this event. Homeschoolers took home numerous awards - and several will be headed to the STATE Competition in May!

The students named below placed within the top 6 in the events listed. Placing within the top 6 is a worthy achievement for any student. The title for each section lists the homeschool group or individual family that the student represented at the PSIA tournament - but all are homeschooled.

The PSIA State AA Tournament will be held at TCU in Fort Worth on April 28th. Students who placed 1st or 2nd in most events are qualified to compete at the State level. Students who placed 3rd (2nd in certain events) are qualified as the State Alternate

A great deal of time and energy goes into preparing for an event like this. Be sure to congratulate these extraordinary homeschooled students when you see them. And good luck at STATE!
