Why WISDAA? #
Joining WISDAA connects a school with a network of coaches/directors who support each other through contests and professional development. The WISDAA employs a professional administrator with over 25 years of experience in teaching and coaching Speech and Debate, directing and teaching Theatre, and running interscholastic contests — and who is available to help support advisors.

Membership #
We offer school membership for middle level and high schools; visit our membership page for information on dues and enrolling a school for membership.
Homeschools #
Homeschool students may either participate with an area public school as per §1.1.2 of the Eligibility and Participation Rules.
Online Schools #
Online schools are assigned to the virtual statewide district/section operated by the State Office, and are subject to the same membership and eligibility requirements of face-to-face schools. Those schools can elect to attend high school state contests in-person, if they wish.
