STE. GENEVIEVE – On Saturday, March 5, 2022 the Valle Catholic Speech Team participated in a Bellarmine speech meet at Sacred Heart in Valley Park, Mo.
In speech meets, students in grades 5-8 develop and improve their public speaking skills by memorizing and performing material in Humorous, Serious, and Duet categories. Ribbons are awarded to participants based upon the total score received from two judges.

Humorous Solo: Isaac Eftink (8th grade): blue ribbon for “The Cat’s Meow” by Robert L Crowe
A perfect score of 30 points earns a gold ribbon.
A score of 27-29 points earns a blue ribbon.
A score of 22-26 points earns a red ribbon.
Congratulations to all students on their excellent performances!
