Area 1 Contest Results
The Area 1 International Speech and Table Topics Contests were held a little over a week ago! It was a great event, with three great competitors. In the Table Topics Contest, Norma Chew, from Miami Advanced, and Jim Bussey, from West Kendall, had to answer the question, "In this world there are 6.6 billion people. I am an individual because..." Both competitors had great questions, but in the end the results were:

1st Place: Norma Chew
2nd Place: Jim Bussey

The International Speech Contest was just as competitive, with Joe Russo, from West Kendall, talking about the troubles of trying to get a job, without going online! And Jim Bussey, from Yellow Rose, talking about being cool in school, and getting that thank you every now and then. Norma Chew, from Miami Advanced, told us all that You Can Do It, no matter what "it" is! It was a tough competition but the final results were:
