The Afro-Academic, Cultural, Technological & Scientific Olympics (ACT-SO) is a major youth initiative of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). Founded in 1978, by the renowned author and journalist, Vernon Jarrett, ACT-SO provides a forum through which African American youth demonstrate academic, artistic and scientific prowess and expertise.
On April 15th, the Montgomery County NAACP Branch will conduct an annual competition for African American students in grades 9-12 within the county. The local competition winners then compete against winners from other cities at the national ACT-SO finals held in Houston, Texas during the NAACP's Annual Convention in July.

All applications are to be returned to Ms. Dyan Harrison by Friday, March 23, 2012.
