Judging Isn't Scary
But judging seems daunting. What if you make a mistake? What if you don’t know what to say? What if the student knows more about the subject than you? And what if you’re wrong? You could ruin a student’s experience and that means you have ruined their life.Absolutely none of that is true.
The New Normal, the Jesters Way -- A message from Mario
Normalcy in the Speech and Debate world is a new type of normal we are still trying navigate. I am off to a slower start than I would like, as is the rest of the high school community. Tournaments are late to be announced, some are cancelled without notice and yet others appear from thin air. But, little by little, a new normal is being found.To help bring this new normal to the Jesters, and with the help and diligence that can only be found in the Grady High School community, this website offers normalcy. On it you will find information that can help navigate the winds of uncertainty. I know that we have a later start than before, a start that may have even been frustrating to some. For that I greatly apologize. Hopefully that feeling is ameliorated a bit with necessary information.
