Public speaking is one of an adult's greatest fears. In order to combat this fear, new groups of students are getting experience in public speaking skills through the Campbell County 4-H Program. At St. Catherine School, 40 sixth through eighth graders are receiving instruction in public speaking through speeches and demonstrations. The 4-H agent works with each grade with exercises such as impromptu speaking and team demonstrations.  The teacher supports the 4-H communications program and plans on the students competing in the county 4-H Communication event in the spring.
