Student of the Year

Each year the Eastern Missouri NSDA honors ONE graduation senior with the "District Student of the Year" award.  This student exemplifies and embodies the NSDA Code of Honor through their activities both within and outside of Speech & Debate!  The student receiving this honor will automatically become a candidate for the NSDA National Student of the Year!

Candidates for this award MUST be nominated by their HEAD or ASSISTANT COACH by March 1, 2021.
