A year after COVID-19 closed Iowa schools and cancelled the state individual speech contest, seven Washington High School students will be competing at the state contest at Winfield-Mt. Union High School tomorrow.
Quinn Wubbena, Hannah Rees, Mathew Osborn, Jenna Messer, Molly Klinzman, Keegan Colby, and Brynn Beenblossom all advanced from the district contest that was also held at Winfield-Mt. Union on February 27th to perform for the chance to receive All-State nominations, though there will be no festival for the second year in a row.

Seven Washington High School students received a Division I rating at the district individual speech contest at Winfield-Mt. Union High School last weekend and are advancing to state.
Nine events have qualified overall for state: Quinn Wubbena and Hannah Rees with solo musical theatre, Mathew Osborn with poetry, Jenna Messer with public address, Molly Klinzman with storytelling and literary program, Keegan Colby with review and acting, and Brynn Beenblossom with prose. Emma Kaye also performed at the district contest in prose and after dinner speaking. The Washington team will perform for a panel of three Iowa High School Speech Association judges at Winfield-Mt. Union on March 13th for a shot at receiving All-State nominations. Though the All-State Festival won’t be held this year due to COVID-19.
One Washington large group speech entry has advanced to the state contest following the district contest they held for themselves Thursday night.
As district contests are not being held traditionally at host schools because of COVID-19, Washington High School hired their own judge for their improv, musical theatre, and short film entries. The musical theatre performance of “Title of Show” received a division I rating and advanced to state, featuring students Hannah Rees, Kevin Flannery, Quinn Wubbena, and Bailey Rees. Improv and short film both received division II ratings. Large Group Speech Coach Audrey Skoog says they plan to hire three judges to evaluate the state entry, as required by the Iowa High School Speech Association. Skoog expects to hold the contest during the second week of February. Speech groups across Iowa will be performing for All-State nominations, though the All-State Festival will not be held this year.
