About the Coach
Mr. Fee has been teaching for over 20 years and is a National Speech and Debate Association 2-Diamond Coach. When he was in high school, he competed in speech and debate; as a student, he mostly focused on extemp, oration,  LD debate, and mock trial. He has coached multiple state champions in speech and mock trial, as well as national finalists. He has also taught Creative Writing and English classes, helping numerous students get published and win awards.

The History of Hebron Speech and Debate
Pre-pandemic, HHS was known as mostly a Policy Debate school, though students also qualified for NSDA Nationals in LD Debate, Oration, Extemp, and POI; the school has won a UIL State Championship and had TFA State finalists. In recent years, the team has had the most success in Extemp and PF debate. We are currently focused on expanding our  Congress and Interp squads.
