Grammar Guidelines
For high school students in the Speech Competition!
Take a look at the Grammar Guidelines below to give you an idea of the kind of grammar that students generally encounter in a classroom setting.
These guidelines should not be viewed as a limitation on the grammar that can be used in the competition. Students are allowed, and even encouraged, to challenge themselves to use more advanced grammar.
