Talent Counts in Speech and Drama Palo Duro's speech and drama department students have the opportunity to express themselves through speaking, reader's theater, plays and class participation. Learning to communicate more effectively, speech students worked on delivery and material and drama students worked on various forms of acting. Students participated in speech tournaments throughout the year. Various entries which these students worked on and presented were interpretation, debate, prose and poetry reading. The speech and drama department is headed by Ms. Patricia Miller. Right - Perry Sanders and Vivian Johnson rehearse a scene. Below - Perry and Mike Timcisko get into their parts. 120
