Speech and Debate

Speech and Debate provides students with multiple opportunities designed to enhance their speaking ability, their persuasion skills, and their own voice. Students develop skills in research, critical thinking, organization, persuasion, and communication.

In 2018, three Speech and Debate students advanced to the State qualifiers. With the recent success, Speech and Debate has grown in size and had members compete in different divisions.

One division that has been growing steadily is Congressional Debate, where students present speeches on different pieces of legislation and question each other about their arguments and evidence.
