Taddei said, “There is so much trial and error, self-examination, and effort that goes into one speech. Our speakers and actors, for example, stress each word of their speeches in a different manner‒and some speeches have more than 1,000 words in them.”
the speech and debate team recently competed at state with three of the members making it into break rounds.
Baker placed in the top 18 of her category in the break rounds of the state tournament. Millie Heschmeyer, a junior in Dramatic Interpretation, was ranked first in the preliminary rounds. She finished top 12 in break rounds. Junior Olivia DeCesare placed in the top 32 in Lincoln Douglas Debate during break rounds, and was first in the preliminary rounds as well.
