American Legion Department of Kansas High School Oratorical Contest

The American Legion Department of Kansas's oratorical contest invites Kansas students in grades 9-12 to compete with a Constitution-focused speech, advancing from district rounds to a Department championship. State-level cash prizes run from $1,000 for first place down to $150 for fourth, and national winners can earn far more. Entries are submitted through a local post at least two weeks before the student's district contest; no Legion family membership is required to enter.
