State Academic Awards
Each year the NIAA partners with Jostens to honor the top academic team in each classification for each sport. Winners are determined by averaging a teams individual GPAs from the previous semester, getting an overall average and comparing them against other teams.
They also recognize the varsity student-athletes who achieve a 4.0 and name them to the all-State Academic Team.
The NIAA considers this state championship award to be equal to the athletic championship in an effort to remind all student-athletes, parents, coaches and fans, that sports should remain an extension of their academic experience.
