This January, Hill Elementary students in grades 2-5 will have the opportunity to participate in a University Interscholastic League (UIL) Meet with other students from across the Austin Independent School District. The purpose is to provide elementary students the opportunity to academically compete with their AISD peers in a fun, supportive environment!

Students have the opportunity to choose which events they would like to participate in from the attached list and will receive study materials for practice. Each event can have up to 5 student competitors in each grade level participating. If Hill has more than 5 student competitors interested, we will have grade level meets to secure the 5 finalists. Because of the large number of schools participating, students may participate in a maximum of three events. Teams will be finalized before fall break. Event details & sample tests can be found at www.uildillos.com

On January 23, 2027, students will participate in the UIL Academic Meet at Summitt Elementary School. On this day, students will compete in their selected events, have a pizza lunch, and enjoy a fun day for all! I will be looking for parent volunteers to help; Please let me know if you’re interested in volunteering on this day in January.

Please review the listed events with your student and fill out the student interest form by Friday, October 30th.  UIL Interest Form  It is essential that if a child chooses to participate, the parent practices the event’s activities with the child at home in preparation for the meet. We also hope to have coaches for each of the events. Please let me know if you are interested in being a group coach. It is enjoyable and rewarding! These parent volunteers meet with groups of students participating in an event to help them prepare leading up to the UIL Meet.
