Lamar Academy Constitution Team claims state title!
The Constitution Team from Lamar Academy claimed the state title December 10 at the Texas State Capitol Building in Austin. This is the 16th state title for a McAllen ISD school since 1992 and the fifth in seven years for Lamar Academy. LeAnna Morse is the sponsor of the Lamar Academy team. The team will represent Texas in the National Competition, April 27-May 1, in Washington D.C.
In preparation for the competition, each unit team prepared a three minute speech in response to formal prompts. On the day of the competition, each unit was asked to present one of their speeches and a panel of three judges had a six minute questioning period to ask follow-up questions.
Teams from McAllen Memorial won the state title in 1992, 93, 94, 95, 96, 98, 99, 2001, 02, 03 and 04. Lamar Academy won state in 2005-06, 2006-07, 2008-09 and 2009-10. On five occasions (1992, 93, 96, 2002 and 06) they went on to finish in the top 10 nationally.
