# High School Competitions in Texas

> Competitions in Texas for high schoolers: 11 listed; next deadline Dec 18, 2026; cities include College Station, Dallas and Austin.

A listing appears when its category and state both match. Missing fields stay blank.

Open a listing for the details we have. Apply on the program's own site, and recheck dates before you spend time or money.
