SPEECH & DEBATE TEAM INFORMATION

Thank you for your interest in Speech & Debate! The North Allegheny Speech & Debate team is one of the largest and most diverse organizations at the high school, with 138 students signed up for the team for the 2024–25 school year!

REGISTRATION FORM

All students must have this form filled out to be considered a member of the Speech & Debate team. A parent/guardian should be available to help fill out the form as there is information we need to have on file (field trip medication form, emergency contact info) before students are permitted to attend tournaments.

The team Constitution & Contract is linked in the registration form—students & parents must read and sign before submitting their registration form.

DUES

Dues are $250 if your parents plan to judge at two tournaments & volunteer at the NA tournament, $500 if your parents would like to buy out of judging (they will still need to volunteer at the NA tournament). All checks should be made out to NASH.

Reach out to Coach Moore at dmoore1@northallegheny.org for more information about fundraising opportunities. We do not want the cost to deter students from participating!

The district requires a participation fee in addition to our dues—Visit the participation fees page for the link to the activity fee information letter. Note: The $25 Activity Fee can be paid online, or with a check made out to NASH. See this FAQ for more information.
