Congratulations to our students who performed at the Speech Competition last weekend! The students performed memorized solos, duets, small group skits, and many also participated in group improv. Each Morris performer received one of the 2 highest ratings, and everyone had their judge and audience laughing throughout their entire performance! Many thanks to Miss Blatti and Miss Druszkowski for their hard work preparing the students for this exciting competition!
