WAGNER ORAL INTERP TEAM ADVANCES TO STATE
Read moreWagner High School senior, Madi Robertson, competed in Mitchell at the District 4 Leadership Development Event (LDEs) on November 18th.. LDEs are held in the fall of each year and are a way for FFA students to demonstrate their natural abilities and practiced skills in created situations that highlight public speaking, decision making, communication and their knowledge of agriculture as well as the FFA organization. Madi competed in the Employment Skills division. She chose this competition specifically because she wanted to gain real life experience of how to get ready for an interview and wanted to overcome the nerves that come with that type of situation. She has really enjoyed this type of competition because she has been able to view a rubic that gaves her details that go into the interview, which has allowed her to improve on her skills. Madi has been competing in this particular LDE for the past three years and has improved each year. This year Madi ended her senior year with 9th place at the District 4 competition. She did not advance to the state competition, but instead won something much more valuable, confidence in both herself and her interview skills. As a freshman, Madi had also done the Creed Speaking LDE event, which is only open to 7th – 9th graders. This was the beginning of helping Madi become comfortable in public speaking and aided her skills in memorization.
