When were you in high school? I remember in the early 2000's there were academic competitions. Each school could send 2 kids for a particular subject for a regional competition. It then went to district and then to state.
There was also the state wide Mu Alpha Theta convention where students tested in individual tests, team relays, and other "fun" math events.

Things like that are considered racist now.

They still have literary rally for a bunch of different subjects. There's a district competition and then the top scorers qualify for the state rally. I don't think you get scholarships for winning anything at state though. Maybe LSU gives a small state rally scholarship since they host it, but no other schools do.

I came in second in the regional rally for American history. Didn't do as well at the state rally though.

Kids are playing travel ball, there is no time for this. What parent would want to sacrifice their kids chances for a athletic scholly and shot at the pros so they can be a math wiz or answer questions about the Illiad.
