This course will focus on the basics of Speech and Debate for young students. Students will learn about competitive events and participate in activities to learn how to present in front of a captivated audience. From fun public speaking games to real application, students will receive training to be their best at competitive Theater, Public Speaking and Debate–aka Speech and Debate. Instructor Dontae Hill aka “The Forensics Guy” has been involved in Speech and Debate for over a decade. The Forensics Guy has dedicated his life to the activity and found a variety of ways to live out his mantra of making sure that every student has the opportunity to be impacted by Forensics. In 2013 he created Forensics Forever which originally began as an organization hosting Speech and Debate classes for elementary students in Wisconsin and is now a league that hosts online Speech and Debate tournaments for all students grades 3-12. We’re excited to have Dontae as the new Athenian School Speech and Debate Instructor for the Upper School. No classes on Feb 20
