The East Iowa District, as part of the National Speech and Debate Association, will be presenting a Student of the Year award at our District IE/Debate event on February 14th-15th. This award (as detailed on page 20 of the High School Unified Manual) is described as follows:

Student of the Year:

  • Schools may nominate graduating seniors as District Student of the Year using the designated form. The nominee must: be an NSDA member in their senior year of high school; demonstrate strong academic standards; actively engage their community through service and action; exhibit dedication to forensics and commitment to values of the Association. Each individual district determines the manner in which nominees are reviewed and selected. Each District Student of the Year who is nominated with the standard form and reported by the district chair before the deadline is eligible for consideration as National Student of the Year, determined through a review process coordinated by the national office.
