3-27-2023 UIL Academic Teams Advance to Regional Competition

The Lytle High School UIL (University Interscholastic League) Academic team competed at the 28-3A District Meet this past Friday, March 24, 2023, and Saturday, March 26,2023. The students did extremely well and are advancing to the Regional Competition in almost every contest we compete in. We brought home many awards in both individual and team competitions. I am proud of all our students! They worked extremely hard and represented Lytle with pride. Most of them are involved in multiple other extracurricular events, including Band, Cross-Country, Track, Baseball, Powerlifting, ROTC, Dual Credit/PTEC, and Cheer, among other things, I am sure. They must juggle many things and manage their time well. Competing in these academic contests takes a lot of commitment and can be stressful as well. It is a testament to their dedication and desire to achieve. If you see them, please congratulate them and wish them well at the Regional Competition.
