| The
Partnership for Academic Competition Excellence (PACE) is
a non-profit alliance of college and high school academic
teams that specifically organize high school academic tournaments
across the country.
PACE has many
objectives:
- to promote
and encourage the growth of quality high school invitational
tournaments around the country,
- to provide
guidance or assistance to other colleges or high schools
that wish to organize such tournaments,
- to encourage
innovation and creativity in academic competition,
- to establish
visibility for college academic team programs that run
high school tournaments,
- to foster cooperation
among college and high school programs in preparation
for upcoming regional, state, or national tournaments,
- to encourage
participation of teams in tournaments across the country
prior to regional, state, or national tournaments,
- to allow all
teams adequate opportunity to practice, compete, and socialize
among other fellow competitors.
There is no membership
fee to be part of this network. However, the success of
this project depends on the willingness and dedication of
high school and college academic competition organizations
to share information and volunteer their time and effort.
