Individual state speech participants did phenomenally yesterday at Starmont!!!
The state competition has three judges per performance, so getting great scores is a bit harder. If each judge gives a 1, they have an overall 1, which is the best you can do. You can still get an overall 1 even if one judge gives a 2, but it’s less likely you will make it to all-state. In order to go to all-state, you have to have an overall 1 and have a nomination from a judge! You can either get an all-state nomination or an all-state performance. Both are wonderful achievements, but performing is above all! It’s like winning the state championship in a sport! With all of that said, the following received straight 1s with an overall 1:
Keeley-prose
Maxwell-radio news
Isabelle-original oratory
Zoey-poetry
Zoey-public address
The following received two 1s and a 2 with an overall 1 rating:
Maxwell-poetry
Ella-public address
I am so proud of all their hard work and dedication! We will know after 5:00 pm on Monday if anyone goes to All-State!
