Academic Decathlon
Campolindo's Academic Decathlon Team has seen a recent rise to prominence. Under the direction of Coach Paul Verbanszky, the Cougars were victorious in the 2011 and 2012 Contra Costa County Academic Decathlons and advanced in both years to the state championship in Sacramento, California, finishing 6th in the Division III state competition on both occasions.

Famous quotes containing the word academic:
“If twins are believed to be less intelligent as a class than single-born children, it is not surprising that many times they are also seen as ripe for social and academic problems in school. No one knows the extent to which these kind of attitudes affect the behavior of multiples in school, and virtually nothing is known from a research point of view about social behavior of twins over the age of six or seven, because this hasn’t been studied either.”
—Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
