2016 Speech & Debate Summer Workshop This summer, the FCHS Speech and Debate Program will be hosting its first Speech and Debate Summer Workshop for all returning middle school students and rising ninth graders. Participants will receive personalized training and chances to practice techniques in a supportive and encouraging environment. Furthermore, this experience will provide participants with invaluable resources, skills and knowledge that will move them ahead in both their competitive speech activities and in their classrooms as well. Lastly, we know from experience that speech and debate develops students with higher levels of confidence, self-worth, leadership and initiative.
