Granada Hills High School, in California, has "won its fifth U.S. Academic Decathlon national championship" in six years!   I don't mean to brag, but Granada Hills is three towns over from where I grew up, two towns away from where I live now, and immediately below me when I fly out on trips.   So you know, fo'getta'bout'it!
