Senior Evan Gaines wins 4-Way Speech Contest!
Encouraged by Speech & Debate teacher, Zachary Haskins, Senior Evan Gaines took on the 4-Way Test Speech Compitition with Sunrise Tulsa Rotary. Evan used the 4-Way Test itself to share his experience of an unfair judge at a previous Speech & Debate contest. The 4-Way Test includes these questions; First: Is it the truth?; Second: Is it fair to all concerned?; Third: Will it build goodwill and better friendships?; Fourth: Will it be beneficial to all concerned? Evan won the contest and had this to say about the experience, "I chose the topic because it was recent and something I could relate to the 4-Way Test. It was a good opportunity to try something new and practice my Speech and Debate skills." Evan will submit his speech for a chance to be in the top three of the rotary's district. If selected, he'll go to Arkansas in May for a chance to compete for an additional $1,000 prize! Way to go, Evan!

The Speech & Debate secured eight podium finishes with two new qualifications for Regionals! Their success landed the team a third place sweepstakes finish in the Champions Division! They celebrated with a well-earned treat! Congratulations to Sailor Lee, 1st in 3A Monologue; Evan Gaines, 1st in Champions Foreign Extemporaneous Speaking followed by Aiden Udden who placed 3rd; Sam Ames, 1st in Champions Lincoln-Douglas Debate followed by Ian Gilliand; Evan Gaines and Kenyen Williams, 2nd for Champions Public Forum Debate: Ellery Rettinger, 3rd in 3A Poetry, and to Aiden Uddin and Parker Nicholas; 3rd in Champions Policy Debate!
