Our State Qualifiers the other 5 events did very well but missed the cut for the final round with our PIR being next in line. We are proud of you all!
The 2015-16 Speech season has come to an end. We had a good year and saw a lot of growth and accomplishments for both the team and individual members.
Sadly we bid farewell to our Seniors but look forward to next year for those.
