At Fountain Inn High School, our Speech & Debate team empowers students to become confident communicators, critical thinkers, and rising leaders in their community. As members of the National Speech & Debate Association (NSDA), students gain opportunities to build lifelong skills, compete at local and national levels, and use their voices to inspire change. No experience is required, just passion and the drive to lead.
Sign-up is in September every year, when we have a yearly introductory session.
