The Forensic Society exists to provide students with
opportunities to develop their speaking skills. Aside from after-school
workshops and practice sessions, members compete in inter-scholastic tournaments
focusing on current events, dramatic and humorous acting, oral interpretation of
literature, original oratory and debate on questions of ethics and political
philosophy. These tournaments are held locally, and at high schools and
universities across the country. We compete nearly every Saturday throughout
the school year at these tournaments. Through their consistently strong
performances, Syosset students have achieved a national reputation for excellence and have advanced to the finals of the state and national championships.
