Middle School S&D

Welcome to Wooster Middle School Speech & Debate!

Here, your voice matters, and it grows stronger every time you use it. Our program is built on the belief that speech and debate benefits students at every level, developing confidence, self-esteem, leadership, and the real-world communication skills that last far beyond the classroom. 

At the heart of everything we do is a commitment to ethics and fair play. We believe integrity is not optional; it is our compass. Whether preparing a speech, engaging in debate, or representing our team, we strive to make decisions guided by honesty, respect, and responsibility. Winning matters, but how we compete matters more.

Together, we are building more than speakers and debaters; we are shaping thoughtful leaders, principled competitors, and confident communicators ready to make a positive impact in their school, their community, and the world.
