Emerson PTSA Update
Registration for Returning Students
Look for Invitation to Register Returning Students May 3-7
Parents listed as primary contacts for students who enrolled in Frisco ISD prior to April 9 will receive email invitations the week of May 3-7 to begin the online registration process for the 2021-22 school year. Parents of students who enrolled after April 9 can expect to receive their invitation emails the week of June 7. Parents should complete the form regardless of their plans for next school year: returning to the same campus zone, moving to a different campus zone or out of Frisco ISD. In addition to the form, proof of residency and any updated immunization records are required to complete the process for returning students. Please note: there is no choice of in-person or virtual learning within the registration form. Parents who would like their students to participate in virtual instruction during the 2021-22 school year should complete a separate application for the FISD Virtual School in addition to the returning student registration.

ACADEMIC DECATHLON (AcDec)
Academic Decathlon (AcDec) is a nationwide competition that occurs in the spring semester. The course poses a unique challenge to both individuals and teams in the form of intense competition. AcDec does not feel like your average class; it is rooted in collaboration, teamwork, competition, and accomplishment. This elective course takes place during the school day and prepares each student for participation in the ten decathlon events: science, social studies, economics, mathematics, fine arts, language and literature, essay, interview, speech, and Super Quiz.
In December, nine members of the class will be chosen to be a part of the competitive team. These nine will make up three teams with varying skill sets and grade point averages. The other members will either compete at the Octathlon level (only for freshmen and sophomores) or play a supportive role after that time.
Some of the top incentives that accompany being a part of the AcDec Team are the new weighted grade point scale of 5.5 and the chance to earn scholarships at top universities. Students that take this course for three years will earn local credit for the third year, which is excluded from GPA calculation. Students should be aware that the practice and competition schedules will require attention outside of the school day, however, that is part of what makes AcDec so special; you have the opportunity to work diligently and closely with others toward a common goal.
If you think you have what it takes to be a founding member of the Emerson High School Academic Decathlon, please indicate your interest by putting your name and email address on this google form or reach out to Mr. Wenokur directly at wenokurk@friscoisd.org
