Congratulations to those students who made the 2008 Forensics State Team.
We value your hard work and dedication to the team! Please have a safe and
amazing spring break.
Please contact your coach regarding practice schedules.
--------------------------------------
212� = The Extra Degree
At 211 degrees, water is hot.
At 212 degrees, it boils.
And with boiling water, comes steam.
And with steam, you can power a train.
As Coaches:
We plan our season and practices with the formal objective in mind of
developing our team members' personal skills in addition to �having
fun�. We
will help you to make the best use of your time.
As Students:
Invest an extra hour of study each week in the course that most interests
you with the understanding that parts of it may become a piece of your
life�s work. At the end of the year, you�ll have added the equivalent of
one
full workweek of dedicated study in your area of interest. This activity
alone will put you far in front of the pack of those who do only what is
required.
