Congratulations to Coach Steven Mercado and the 2011-2012 Chaffey High
School
Academic Decathlon Team
In addition to the schedule listed above, I assisted head coach Mr.
Steven Mercado and Chaffey High School's Academic
Decathlon Team as they prepared for the 2012 San Bernardino County
competitions to be held in January and February. My principal areas of involvement are mathematics,
science, speech, and interview.
In the 2012 San Bernardino County Academic Decathlon,
Chaffey earned a first place finish for the third time in four years.
Chaffey has finished in the top two
each of the past eight years. Mr. Mercado published this
summary of the 2012 County
competition results.
This year's competition took place at
Arroyo Valley High School in San Bernardino. The speech, interview,
and essay portions of the competition took place on Saturday, January 28,
2012 with the objective portions including the Super Quiz relay on
Saturday, February 4. Individual, event, and team winners were
announced at the county banquet held at the National Orange Show event
center in San Bernardino on February 9.
Chaffey joined Rancho Cucamonga High School and Redlands High School (who
finished second and third, respectively) at the California State
Academic Decathlon Competition on March 15-18 in Sacramento. This
year, Chaffey finished 17th
out of 65 teams competing.
