Senior Voice

It’s a watershed event in the life of a Brunswick boy, a turning point in growth from adolescent to young man. Each year, every week from November to April, Brunswick seniors take a turn at the podium in Baker Theater. Center stage, the student delivers a three- to five-minute speech, known quite simply as the “Senior Voice.” The speeches are a requirement for graduation and offer a chance for students to hone their skills in public speaking.

The speech is formal. Boys wear a jacket, a Brunswick patch, and a senior tie; the talk is evaluated for content, eye contact, tone, length, and more. All Senior Voice speeches are recorded and catalogued, and boys are provided a private link they can share with family and friends.
