Parents and Students:
Beginning the 2024-2025 school year, a new competitive team emerges! We encourage all eligible students to join the new Robinson Competitive Speech and Debate team!
Scholars can choose from over 30 different events in drama and speech performance, as well as competitive debate. They will have the opportunity to attend as many as 10 tournaments this upcoming season, competing against the top schools in the state.
Our coaches have decades of experience and have mentored students to state and national prominence. We want to do the same for your son and/or daughter!
Please fill out this form - https://bit.ly/3y6cn7S - and provide some contact information, and what events your child may be interested in learning.
Our first workshop will happen in early August. We will send out more information to interested families.
