Awards
We are happy to provide tournament opportunities to our families. At the Speech & Debate Institute, we will always prioritize the growth of our student's public speaking skills: confidence, research capabilities, analysis, quick thinking, writing and persuasive performance skills. At the end of the day, trophies will never be more important than the skills that you gain from public speaking.
And that is exactly why we choose to celebrate our students that have overcome their fears and found new levels of growth in their public speaking journeys.
