TROUPE would like everyone to know that September is Suicide Prevention Month, a time to remind everyone that mental health matters and no one should feel alone. Tomorrow, wear teal and purple to help raise awareness for suicide prevention and show your support for those who may be struggling. Let’s fill our school with teal and purple and show that we care! If you or someone you know needs help, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Morris Speech had quite the 2025-26 season. We were the I8 Conference Champs, IHSA Regional and Sectional Champs, and took 13 events to State. But Morris Speech is about way more than trophies. You’ll build confidence, make new friends, perform, develop leadership skills, and, most importantly, find your voice. All students are invited to come to our first Speech Team meeting of the year tomorrow, September 16th, right after school in Mrs. G's room. 141. Whether you're already a performer, someone who loves to argue, a natural storyteller, or someone who is terrified of public speaking but wants to get better, there's a place for you on Morris Speech.
