Our middle and high school nationals team invites students who are focused on achieving nationally competitive excellence in acting; prepared speaking; and limited preparation speaking activities. Students meet with groups of two or three with their primary coach during the weekdays and attend weekend workshops with other students and coaches to optimize their feedback. On the nationals team; students learn how to write speeches; develop a variety of events; and take those events to competitions across the United States. Students who join the nationals team will develop their speaking; writing; research; peer review; and listening skills; as well as enhance their ability to work as a team.
