Acadec is for those people who enjoy learning (not necessarily school-work though.) We work in small settings on something that interests you. I can say that we will work on something that interests you with quite a bit of confidence, because in Acadec we learn a little about everything.


The theme this year is “Understanding Others” with emphasis on Philosophy, Psychology, and Religion. In the Language and Literature section, we are reading Frankenstein as well as six poems to study. The theme for mathematics is “Gateways to Logical Thinking.”  Science will involve Cell Biology, Molecular Genetics, and Immunology. The focus of economics will be in individual enterprise. The music theme is “World Sacred Music: Sounds of the Soul.”


Now I would like to explain how the team is divided. In Acadec, there are three divisions: Honors, Scholastic, and Varsity. Honors students are students with and ADGPA of 3.75 or higher. Scholastic students have a ADGPA between 3.0 and 3.75 and Varsities are under 3.0. Your ADGPA (Acadec Grade Point Average) is the average of all your ACADEMIC classes on a 4.0 scale for the last two years. This means Jr. High grades count for Freshmen and Sophomores. We need Varsity members! Most people who join Acadec are Honors competitors. In order to have a full team, we need three Varsity members. So, if you have less than brilliant grades we need you even more!


If you are interested in learning about anything and everything and having fun while doing it, Acadeca is for you. Email us at [email protected] or see Ms. Kenny or Ms. Gaffy
