This weekend the team travels to Bellaire for their high school tournament. We will be the only middle school there along with 50 high school teams. The tournament is spread over two days:

Friday
Students in impromptu speaking, poetry, oratory, duet acting and debate will report to the Lanier foyer at 12:30 to take buses to Bellaire. Rounds begin at 2:00 p.m. Students can be picked up at Bellaire Friday night since there won't be a bus returning to Lanier.

Saturday
Students in extemporaneous speaking, humorous, prose and debate need to report directly to Bellaire (7:45 a.m. for debaters and extempers and 8:15 a.m. for others.)  Students will be picked up at Bellaire once they are done.

    About Mr. Hill

    I began teaching drama in 1998 at J.Will Jones Elem. and then at Long Middle School from 2001 to 2007. I'm currently the debate teacher/coach at Lanier Middle School. I love it.
