WHAT CAN SPEECH DO FOR ME?
Speakers develop skills in research, critical thinking, organization, persuasion, and communication. Speech students gain tangible benefits from participation such as, confidence in speaking situations, spontaneity in interviews, improved writing in other courses, diverse perspectives. Plus, you hang out with cool people and meet many from around the state.
WHAT IS MY TIME COMMITMENT?
Speech begins practicing “officially” right after Thanksgiving, but team members are encouraged to select their pieces in October and November. You will need to practice an average of thirty minutes EACH WEEK. These are individually scheduled, to allow students to be involved in sports, the spring play, or other activities AND still do Speech. Speech Meets are generally held on Saturdays from February to April. Speech has a Section Tournament and the State Speech Meet in April.
