California Decathletes visit for Lecture Day

More than 375 Academic Decathletes from throughout California joined Madera County’s high school competitors in Madera for the 17th Annual Academic Decathlon Lecture Day.

Valley experts lectured on six subject areas pertaining to this year’s Decathlon topic, “Technology and Humanity.” 

“Lecture Day gives students the opportunity to interact with students from other schools across the state and come together to build their own team,” said Cecilia Massetti, Madera County Superintendent of Schools. “Students are enjoying this year’s theme, learning about a current and timely topic that impacts their daily lives certainly grabs their attention. There is so much to learn, and the journey is just getting started.”
