Learn Speech

The National Forensics League is one of the largest high school honors socieities in the world. For decades, the NFL has sought to give youth in this country the voice they need to communicate and be successful in our world. The NFL offers a wide array of events such as Public Speaking, Interpretation, and Debate events to suit all types of performers.

Even if you only try it once, your experience in the NFL is something you will learn much from and certainly never forget.

Since the 1970s West High's Debate team has been actively involved in giving youth a voice and helping each one find success. For the last three years, West has been awarded a 200 Club award from the NFL noting our success with growing and maintain a large and successful squad. Yet, while we have received much regional, state, and national attention, West NFL seeks to create a community of students who want to better themselves and better the world. As we say, trophies are nice, but they melt in the mircowave. It is the experiences that will last a lifetime.

Each month, every other month, or once a year, the NFL provides a set of topics on which we are to debate. Here you will find a link to the current topics.
