Nominate Students for the New NSDA Student Leadership Council
|
The new Student Leadership Council (SLC) will be a unique way to influence the organization’s future and an excellent addition to any student’s resume. The SLC will be composed of current high school student members of the National Speech & Debate Association graduating in or after 2024. Members will provide feedback and recommendations throughout the year to ensure we are meeting students’ needs. Each district has the opportunity to nominate one member student for consideration. District winners must be reported by the district chair by March 1, 2023. International students are also eligible.
Please ask students who are passionate about improving speech and debate if they are interested in participating.
