    The Dallas ISD Student Activities Department is proud to continue supporting teachers and students as everyone adjusts to a new reality. In an effort to keep students engaged and in touch with one another while promoting the importance of fun and relevant competitions, some district extracurricular activities will be shifting online. Students will now be able to participate in the originally scheduled spring season of activities while representing their campuses from home!

    “Now more than ever students need activities that keep them engaged in learning and interacting with their peers,” said Sharla Hudspeth, director of Student Activities. “Coaches and students have spent the entire school year preparing for district-sponsored academic competitions. We are so fortunate to provide options that allow students to pick up where they left off.”

    The Texas Academic Pentathlon Region Online Competition will take place Saturday, April 25. The theme is In Sickness and In Health: An Exploration of Illness and Wellness. The contest will consist of five objective tests: literature, science, social science, fine arts and math.

    Elementary UIL for school leadership B campuses will take place Saturday, May 16. Students will compete in an online academic competition that includes topics such as dictionary skills, spelling, listening skills, number sense, chess puzzle, maps, graphs, charts and social studies.

    Qualifying chess tournaments will take place Saturday, April 18 and Saturday, April 25. Students in grades 3-12 will compete in two online tournaments. Top performing players will qualify for the Championship Tournament taking place on Saturday, May 2.
