Speech Contest For Elk Grove Unified School District High School Students- Saturday, February 21, 2015
9 a.m. –Noon - Valley Hi-Laguna North Library
7400 Imagination Parkway
Off Bruceville Road, Across from CRC
This is the “feel good” event of our branch’s calendar year as we listen to 9th – 12th grade students express their opinions and tell us about their futures.
This year, students will speak on the very timely topic, “Is college worth the time and expense?” Rising tuition, decreasing public funding, impacted majors requiring more years in school, and skyrocketing student loan debt is on the negative side of the coin. The opportunities for more interesting and challenging employment, higher pay, better benefits and an all-around better life than was had by previous generations is on the positive side of this question. How will they answer this question of Shakespearean scope? Please join us to hear their responses.
