Bishop Brady High School has a proud tradition of competing in Granite State Challenge, New Hampshire PBS’s long-running academic quiz competition. Since its premiere in 1984, the program has challenged high school students from across New Hampshire to put their knowledge, quick thinking, teamwork, and academic curiosity to the test.

Throughout Brady’s participation, our teams have celebrated memorable victories, faced worthy opponents, and represented the Giant community with determination and pride. Each season builds upon the efforts of the students who came before while giving a new group of Giants the opportunity to leave their own mark.

At Bishop Brady, Granite State Challenge is about more than answering questions correctly. It is an opportunity for students to challenge themselves, work together, represent their school, and discover just how far preparation, perseverance, and a willingness to take on something difficult can carry them.

We are proud of the Giants who have represented Brady in years past and look forward to the victories, valiant efforts, and successes still ahead.
