2025 Poetry Out Loud
Congratulations to our Poetry Out Loud participants! After two contestants ended in a tie for first place, we searched the Poetry Out Loud Rules to discover the formula for breaking a tie. So, drum roll, please… First place went to Joshua Cloer (12), second place went to Madison Harris (11), and third place went to Trey Henderson (11). Joshua will represent Harding Academy at the Tennessee state finals March 1 at the Mockingbird Theatre in Franklin, TN.
