Kennedy’s Academic Decathlon team will compete March 4 and 5 at the state competition in Mason City.

After they qualified for state at Jefferson High School, Tori Paga, Lucas Horton and Aiden McGrane are excited to welcome their newest alternates Srinidhi Kompella and Quinn Johnson.

“I’m excited to see if I will be able to place again and help lead my team to nationals. It would be an amazing accomplishment for me and the team if we could,” Paga said.
