TAMS Academic Society (formerly Teach & Learn) is dedicated towards fostering an environment in which individuals are able to thrive academically through the use of our peer tutoring system and academic committees. We also focus on giving back to those who need it most in our surrounding community of North Texas through our variety of education-based volunteering committees such as tutoring ESL students and working with specialists to help children in the Autism community. Additionally, we aim to create an impact globally through She's the First, an international nonprofit dedicated towards funding the education of female scholars in low-income countries. Furthermore, we offer opportunities for students to challenge themselves academically through a variety of academic competitions such as academic decathlon and various humanities focused programs.

Academic competitions are an important part of the TAMS experience, and in order to get the most out of these competitions, TAS's Competitions Committee helps students learn beyond the classroom by hosting review sessions, compiling resources, and helping students get to know various competition formats. Our committee heads are dedicated to helping each and every student excel and win awards at competitions about any subject. This year, the Committee heads plan on helping students prepare for the USA Biology Olympiad (USABO), USA Chemistry Olympiad (USNCO), history competitions, and literature competitions.
