Worcester Academy's Fiona Price, Grade 7, of Northborough won First Place in the Winter Middle School Dexter Prize Speaking Contest that took place on Feb. 6.

The Dexter Prize Speaking Contest has a long and storied history at Worcester Academy and has flourished in recent years with support from an alumnus, Hervey Ross '46. Dexter Prize participants speak for roughly five minutes to an audience of more than 200 students. The contest, held three times a year, includes cash prizes for the winners. The participants learn self-confidence and the ability to communicate clearly, two important characteristics for effective leadership and success.
