Middle School Speech Team (gr. 6-8)

Do you like to talk? Or maybe you want to improve your confidence in yourself? Then you want to be on the Centennial Middle School Speech Team! Speech Team competes in four meets a season against other MS speech teams from the Twin Cities metro area. The Speech Team student researches and writes their own speech OR finds a speech already written depending on the category chosen. Students should try and pick the category you wish to compete in and have a rough draft of your category before the first rehearsal/session. If you want help deciding on your category and how to put together your rough draft, the speech coaches will help in the first scheduled meeting. You will be required to have your category picked and a rough draft by the second meeting/rehearsal session. The list of categories and more details about how Speech Team works can be found at Centennialtheatre.org. For questions contact ewebster@isd12.org. Cost includes bussing for away meets.

Meets will be in January on a Tuesday or a Thursday. Meets held at Minnetonka Middle School West & East, Eden Prairie (Finals Meet), and a Centennial home meet. Meets are after school leaving around 2:30 or 3 pm and returning to Centennial around 7:30-9 pm. The Meet schedule with exact dates and times will be announced in the fall of 2025.
