The goal of our speech club is to train students in public speaking with an emphasis on putting God first. Students are encouraged to strive to do their best.
ROC is structured similar to a co-op. Meetings will begin on time. Please plan to arrive a few minutes early to get settled so you don’t miss out on important announcements or valuable training time. Our coaches are all participating parent volunteers and we will want to respect their commitment by honoring the times we set for them to be there.
Each Club Day will include instruction, assignments, practice and critiquing. This is accomplished as a cooperative effort and active participation of BOTH parents and students. Parents are required to be present when their children are present on club days and tournaments.
