The Afro-Academic, Cultural, Technological and Scientific Olympics (ACT-SO), informally named the "Olympics of the Mind," is a youth program of the NAACP that is "designed to recruit, stimulate, improve and encourage high academic and cultural achievement among African American high school students."[1] The year-long program recognizes and awards young people who have demonstrated academic and cultural achievement.[2] Gold, silver, and bronze medals, along with cash awards, are awarded to winners in each of 29 categories of competition in the sciences, humanities, business, performing and visual arts, and local and national entrepreneurship/ culinary competitions.[1][2] Active in nearly 400 cities, ACT-SO is the largest academic promotion for black youth in America.
