Speech Builds Confidence as Students Once again declamation was a major activity at AHS with 48 members. Because of the large number of students participating the group was divided into two sections; coaches were Mr. John Burke and Mr. John Jacobs. Our students participate in: home speech contest, district, and state. Many students are called upon to give their speeches for organizations in the area.
