French Forensics

French Forensics (Concours Oral) is a French-speaking competition that is open for all French students of all levels. Students compete in a Regional Competition, in which they perform in front of three judges.  Judges give students a score of an A, B, or C, based on the student’s performance.  Students must earn at least two A’s in order to advance to the State Competition, where they compete to earn the highest rating of a triple A and earn a gold medal.

Students chose one of six categories in which to compete:

*Poetry

*Extemporaneous Prose

*Extemporaneous Conversation

*Readers Theatre

*Theatre

*Music Performance

Félicitations to West De Pere Middle School for earning the Lillian Trottier award (award for being the team with the most students who earned a gold medal rating in the state) in every year from 2014-2025 (excluding 2020, when the event was cancelled due to COVID-19)!
