Southwest Speech Opens Now



The Speech Season kicked off this weekend at the Eden Prairie tournament. I will gracefully dodge the topic of results, but instead focus on the fact that our team is incredibly diverse (far more than any other team at the tournaments) and are largely new to Speech and to many extra-curricular activities. 

I am enormously proud of this and the scholars that brave, what is considered the most terrifying feat (even eclipsing death related exploits) that can be faced by mere mortals, the act of speaking in front of people. 

The team did so with grace and an amazing positive attitude considering we were up against some of the best teams in the state. The following is a list of those who participated on Saturday. 

Please congratulate them on representing our school so well.
