KAAC Governor’s Cup Competition 2010

Goal:  Compete in State Governor’s Cup

Each year more than 20,000 students from nearly 1,200 middle and high schools (public and private) compete individually for the top ten spots in Math, Science, Social Studies, Language Arts, and Arts & Humanities. Group competition consists of Future Problem Solving and Quick Recall.  Competition is held in Louisville, Kentucky at the Galt House the middle of March each year. It is an honor to compete on that level and mingle with the best students in the state of Kentucky.

To prepare for Governor’s Cup, Drakes Creek participates in the Cave Country Academic League.  For more information about Kentucky Academic Association for Competition, go to the www.kaac.com website.
