Episode 6: Will you take the leap? (w/ Carrie Baker Jackson!)

In this episode, we discuss urban districts in Speech and Debate, and figure out a way to get more coaches to take the leap and coach!   Carrie's Bio: Carrie Baker Jackson started coaching forensics in 2000 and over the last 20 years has coached at private, suburban and urban schools.  She serves as the Milwaukee Archdiocese Catholic Forensics League director and led a team of local coaches that hosted the NCFL Grand National Tournament last spring.  She also serves on the Southern Wisconsin National Speech and Debate Association Committee.  Baker Jackson teaches at Ronald Reagan College Preparatory High School in Milwaukee Public Schools, where she developed the IB Theatre Program.  In addition to coaching forensics, Baker Jackson oversees the Theatre Program at Reagan IB HS, directing the Reagan Fall One Acts and co-directing the Reagan Musical. Baker Jackson loves teaching theatre and coaching forensics because “our young people need to be given a voice and these activities provide them a platform.”  New episodes every Monday!
