Ennis Christmas Invitational UIL Academic Meet

December 10, 2022

August 22, 2022

Dear UIL Academic Coordinator:

Ennis High School is excited about hosting our Christmas INVITATIONAL UIL ACADEMIC MEET on Saturday, December 10, 2022.

There will be only one division of academic competition and entries will be limited; therefore, entries will be taken on a first come first served basis.  When the maximum number of entries for a limited contest is reached, that contest is filled.  The following events will be limited:  Computer Applications will be limited to 30 entries; Prose, Poetry, Informative Speaking, and Persuasive Speaking will be limited to 24 entries per event; and Spelling will be limited to 25 entries.  Since entries for these events are limited, there will be no refunds for cancellations once the school reserves or registers for a slot.  You can make substitutions on the day of the tournament.  Please report any changes in speaking events so that we are able to make a more accurate schedule.  Please email or text changes immediately when you have them to lynn.mangus@ennis.k12.tx.us or 903-875-4199.

The meet will follow UIL rules and offer all events with the exceptions of Student Congress and hands-on computer science.  Medals will be awarded to the top six winners in each event.  The top scorer in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics will be recognized.  Awards will be presented to the two top schools.

Individual awards and team awards will be announced in the cafeteria after the official results have been verified and recorded for each contest.  Test papers and other contest materials may be taken with you when you leave.   

Schools MUST provide graders for any event that a student is entered into.  Please indicate on the entry form the names of the persons who will be grading/judging.  A grading/judging fee of $100 will be assessed for all missing graders and judges.

Please park in the "2301 Ensign Road" parking lot.

Refreshments for sponsors, graders, and judges, will be provided in our food lab.  A snack bar will be available to students throughout the tournament.

If there are any questions, call me at 903-875-4199.  We are looking forward to having you on our campus.  We anticipate a great competition!  Christmas sweaters are encouraged!

Sincerely,

 Lynn Mangus. lynn.mangus@ennis.k12.tx.us
