committed to promoting Hi-Q, supporting and recognizing
academic achievement with the same manner of appreciation
shown to athletes. The Delaware County Intermediate Unit
provides program management and production support.

Hi-Q History

Early one morning in the summer of 1948, two Scott Paper
executives, members of the newly formed public relations
department, met to create a high school radio quiz program
that would represent a constructive contribution to the youth
of Delaware County, Pennsylvania, the base of Scott Paper
Company operations. Through negotiations with Chester radio
station WPWA, Scott's Hi-Q was born. Robert O. Johnson, a
young man with experience hosting quiz programs, was named
quizmaster, researched and wrote the questions, and coined the
name Hi-Q-"Hi" for high school and "Q" for I.Q.
The first Scott's Hi-Q competition was held October 13,
1948. This history-making event between Sharon Hill and
Marple Newtown High Schools was recorded for broadcast on
WPWA, a Chester, PA radio station. Sharon Hill High School
was victorious. Media High School emerged as the first Hi-Q
champion in spring 1949 following a competition with finalists
Swarthmore, Collingdale, Glen-Nor, and Haverford High
Schools.

Hi-Q is alive and well in Delaware County; it is a program
that continues to stimulate young minds and a constructive
contribution to the youth of Delaware County, Pennsylvania.
Delco Hi-Q continues as a partnership between education and
business organizations. The Delaware County Intermediate
Unit, in conjunction with Franklin Mint Federal Credit Union,
produces the competition. FMFCU Partners in Education
Foundation secures funding for Hi-Q, the annual Partners
in Education Celebration (the region's premier academic
recognition event), and many related educational initiatives.
Delco Hi-Q Hall of Honor
The Delco Hi-Q Hall of Honor
was created in 2005 to honor
past Hi-Q participants and those
who have made an outstanding
contribution to the Delco Hi-Q
program. The Hall of Honor will
grow to include participants from
each decade of Hi-Q. Nominations
for the 2018 inductee will be
accepted through February 28, 2018
at DelcoHiQ.org. *
