The UIL Academics team participated in the regional competition in Arlington on April 22nd after advancing in the district competition. The students gave their best and participated eagerly.

Junior Jazelle Gonzales placed 2nd in feature writing and advanced to state. The state competition took place on Wednesday, May 17th at the University of Texas in Austin.

“I thought I was not going to win during district,” Gonzales said.

When asked whether she believes she could place at state Jazelle firmly denied it. “I doubt I’m going to win. Those people are probably smarter than me, but I’m just going there for the fun you know?”

“I thought I was not going to win during district,” Gonzales said. “I was like I’m just going to lose, but you know what, YOLO. I was really shocked when I ended up placing.”
