Jackson's Speech and Debate Team is an exciting and competitive club offered to our 4th and 5th grade students. Our students are assigned a script and then work with coaches to memorize, animate, express, and deliver their speech to a crowd. It builds many life skills, such as confidence and poise. Students develop self-confidence as they learn to speak in front of their peers or an audience. Additionally, it provides students with language skills as they memorize speeches on various topics to present at Speech & Debate events. The school and community is proud of this team and their accomplishments!

The Speech & Debate program is currently offered to students in grades 4-5 but will be expanding to include students in 3rd grade in the next school year.
