Recognize Students for Service

Students can earn up to 20 service points per day for a maximum of 200 service points per year. Points are an excellent way to recognize student work as well as encourage students who are interested in speech and debate but juggling other responsibilities. Examples include:

Coaching middle or elementary school students prior to a tournament
Judging a round of middle school competition
Volunteering at a homeless shelter
Giving a speech at a political rally
Helping at the ballot table at an after school tournament
Volunteering at a summer camp for middle or elementary school students
Working at a team fundraiser
Speaking as part of a religious service
