Crandall Cutlass Classic

September 9, 2025

Dear UIL Academic Coordinator:

Crandall High School is excited about hosting our first CRANDALL CUTLASS CLASSIC on February 21, 2026!

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. 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 cmaddox@crandall-isd.net (or 214-529-2247).

The speech and debate portion of the invitational will be supervised by Mrs. Anna Rhea (Assistant Principal @ Kemp High School).

The meet will follow UIL rules and offer all events with the exceptions of 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. Sweepstakes awards will be presented to the two top schools.

Individual awards and team awards will be announced throughout the day 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.

Refreshments for sponsors, graders, and judges, will be provided in our hospitality room. Concessions will be available for purchase to students throughout the tournament.

If there are any questions, please don't hesitate to email, text, or call me. We are looking forward to hosting all of you!

Sincerely,

Courtney Maddox
