Academic Athletic Team of the Year Awards – Winter Sports
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
To encourage our students to improve their academic standings, competition has been established between our senior high schools to motivate all sport team members to achieve their very best academic standing. The team standing is determined by averaging team members' unweighted grade point averages (GPA's) to determine the team average. The team in each sport with the highest GPA is identified as the Academic Athletic Team of the Year. Each winning team receives a rotating trophy with the school name engraved on the trophy. The trophy remains at the school for one year.
This year's winners will receive their trophies at a ceremony to be held on April 21, 2005, at the Raymond O. Shelton School Administrative Center. The following sport teams will be presented trophies:
- Boys’ Basketball – Riverview
- Girls’ Basketball – Armwood
- Boys' Soccer – Plant City
- Girls' Soccer – Riverview
- Wrestling – King
- Cheerleading – Newsome
Attached are the Team Unweighted GPA's for the past three years.
