From Mrs. Giallombardo:

Forensics is a drama competition where students from grades 5-8 interpret a playwright’s, novelist’s, speechwriter’s or poet’s intention or purpose. It is important for competitors to use full range of voice, be believable, give the appearance of spontaneity, and possess confidence and poise. All in a matter of 5-8 minutes!

Our Forensics team competed at Hudson Catholic Regional High School on April 24th. We are proud of all our competitors and all their success! Thank you for your hard work and dedication to the team!
