Forensics: Speech is basically competitive drama. There are multiple events for all types of interests (Comedy, Dramatic, Speech, or a mix of all three!) You can work by yourself or with a partner, and you can come up with your own piece or find one already written. There are also group events such as Words and Music (musical theater) and Readers Theater (mix of acting and musical theatre).
This is a great opportunity for your daughter to learn skills that will help her throughout life, increase self esteem, and form lifelong friendships. It does require a bit of time and work, but you will not regret it. Forensics: Speech is open for freshmen-seniors; it is recommended to take the class but not required.
