🗣️ Winning with Words – How the Speech & Debate Team has Found Success 💭

PCHS Speech & Debate Team Members Lila Gabbay, Porter Hoffman, and Chloe Sawyer prepping ahead of the 2025 State Tournament.

“I just wanted to be a better speaker. Before, I was very shy, and very timid. And, I feel like this has just made me a better speaker overall.”

-Lila Gabbay, PCHS Speech & Debate Team answering the question as to why she joined the team.

PCEF donors have been supporting Speech and Debate for 12 years! With the support of a PCEF Classroom Grant, funded by generous donors, the Speech and Debate Team has the necessary resources to help students develop critical thinking skills, build confidence, and compete at the highest level.
