NIETOC Day 1! Wish Brielle luck as she competes in Informative Speaking!

We traveled with Lubbock High competitor and friend, Mason Wittie, who is competing in DI and POI!

Go Plainsmen and go LISD!

Plainsmen Speech & Debate had a great showing at UIL District yesterday! We took 9 kids to Amarillo and 4 of them brought back some hardware! Our program keeps growing and improving every year. Watch out for SJ at Regionals!

Did you really think our team would travel and not stop at Buc-ee’s? Be so for real.

It’s Spring Break for the Plainsmen! Know what would make it even sweeter? If you could donate to help send us to Nationals! There are only 3 days left on our fundraiser! If you can’t donate, please like, comment, or share! Link in the comments.

No main event elimination rounds for us this morning, so we are in Impromptu and cheering on TFA Region 1! Wish us and our area luck!

How to prepare for TFA State Competition:
1. Guitar Hero for hand eye coordination
2. Basketball for the athleticism needed to run between rounds
3. Escape Room to get our brains going.

It’s almost time!

It’s been a long time coming, but finally posting the results from the Hub City Swing with Frenship and All Saints! We took home a ton of hardware and 3 new TFA State Qualifications! Great way to end the regular TFA season.
