A new club has been added to the SCA atmosphere. Mrs. Long and Ms. Guffey fronted the move to create a Forensics Club. This speech and debate club seeks to provide students with the ability to develop critical thinking skills, writing skills, and presentation skills. Students are taught to engage in civil discussion and learn to understand both sides of an argument. Analytical and public speaking skills will be put to the ultimate test. The first event is scheduled for October 26th. Pictured are the club's officers.
