Flathead High School’s speech & debate team
was named to
the
National Speech & Debate Association’s
TOP 100 schools
in the nation
for the 2014-2015 academic year,
ranking 92nd
out of the more than 3,200
member schools nationwide!
According to
Executive Director J. Scott Wunn, the selected schools “demonstrated
outstanding participation and achievement in speech and debate activities” and
were chosen based on “competitive and service-related” performance.
Our strong showing at nationals, paired with our State Championship last year, resulted in an historic season for Flathead forensics.
Additionally, we were also recognized as a prestigious
Societe’ de 300 program, which is based on the number of kids
successfully competing in our program. This accolade places us in the top 3%
of programs in the nation!
The two awards are based on separate criteria – the TOP 100
is competitive success and the Societe’de 300 is the strength of our
program based on the success and participating number of students.
Congratulations, team!
