About Us

AFRO-ACADEMIC, CULTURAL, TECHNOLOGICAL AND SCIENTIFIC OLYMPICS (ACT-SO)

Each year, high school students across the country start a journey to sharpen their skills through the Afro-Academic, Cultural, Technological and Scientific Olympics (ACT-SO). From visual arts and business to performing and culinary arts, participants work with community-based volunteers for a year to develop projects and performances. The experience culminates in local and national events where students compete for scholarships and other rewards. 


High School Students:

 The NAACP’s Afro-Academic, Cultural, Technological and Scientific Olympics (ACT-SO) is  a yearlong achievement program designed to recruit, stimulate, and  encourage high academic and cultural achievement among African-American  high school students. There are 32 competitive areas for  participants in both local and the National  ACT-SO Competition held  each year.
