CONGRATULATIONS to Senior Avery Ferguson for earning the highest distinction, Degree of Premier Distinction, in the National Speech & Debate Association’s National Honor Society! Fewer than 3% of NSDA members earn this distinction prior to their high school graduation! This milestone is a celebration of the hundreds of hours Avery has spent preparing, practicing, and competing to hone her communication and leadership skills. Avery has been on the CHS team for 3 years and has competed in Mock Trial (State Champions 2023, State Runners Up 2024), Arkansas Student Congress (Outstanding Delegation 2023), Original Oratory (State Champion 2023), Big Question debate, and IPDA debate. She has earned bids and competed at the University of Kentucky Tournament of Champions (2023 & 2024), the NSDA National Tournament (2023), Mock Trial National Championship (2023), and the Arkansas State Championship tournament (2022, 2023, 2024). #lovesndrespect🤟🏻💙
CONGRATULATIONS to CHS Seniors Daniel Taft, Mary Caroline Grimes & Avery Ferguson for earning the distinction of ALL STATE in the National Speech & Debate Association's National Honor Society! The NSDA All State award is given each year to the top overall points earners in each State. Avery is 5th in the state, Daniel is 10th in the state, and Mary Caroline is 34th in the state. In order to qualify, a student must have competed once at Nationals. Daniel (Extemporaneous Debate), Mary Caroline (Lincoln-Douglas Debate) & Avery (Original Oratory) all competed at the NSDA National Tournament in Phoenix, AZ in 2023. All three are members of the CHS Forensics & Debate Team, coached by Mrs. Casey Griffith. Mary Caroline will be attending Swarthmore College and Avery will be attending University of Arkansas in the fall. Daniel is still undecided on his college of choice.
