Description:
Academic WorldQuest (AWQ) is a team game, challenging competitors' knowledge of international issues in geography, history, current events, culture and more. AWQ competitors are composed of high school students in four-person teams, competing for the opportunity to represent Montana at the National Academic WorldQuest Competition in Washington D.C. In 2007, Hellgate High School placed 2nd in the nation and in 2009, Billings Skyview placed 4th against public, private and charter schools from across the United States. This event is also open to the public; for all who wish to observe Montanan students flexing their international intellect.
