Grant County News online reports:
"It was only two years ago that Ryan Ray started the speech and drama program at Grant County High School with just 15 students.Senior Justine Croy, a founding member of the team, remembers those days.
"When Mr. Ray first started this, I'm not sure what he saw," she said.Obviously, Ray saw something, because now the team has swelled to 40 members and has become a major player in the high school speech and drama scene."We went from finishing pretty much in the bottom three at every competition to now finishing in the top three," Croy said.

We've grown quite a bit since our first year...we just came back from the Kentucky High School Speech League State Tournament (it is important to note that KHSSL is one of the oldest student organizations in the state of KY). At the tournament, we placed 3rd out of 52 schools (an improvement of 3 placings since last season). It was an honor to see the joy on the students faces when we took home the trophy. Nothing makes your career feel more rewarding than when you know you've helped your students accomplish something that they originally thought was out of their reach. It was a weekend I'll definitely never forget.
Thanks for the post!
