Parents and Students of Marshall Speech,

As we all know, every year there are many expenses that must be covered to help each and every speech student see success. Our nationally-recognized speech team raises money to pay for assistant coach stipends, books, bus upgrades, scripts, and many other itemsthat benefit every team member. We in the Booster Club believe that we can raise the necessary funds to maintain our excellent program as long as every Speechie does his or her part. Remember that your fundraised dollars are crucial to maintaining and developing the tradition of excellence that is such a part of Marshall Speech!

Thank you!
