The Laureate Experience

The Laureate Experience, Tatnall’s school-wide public speaking, communication, and leadership initiative, begins at age 2 and continues through Grade 12. The curriculum fully embeds public speaking, guiding students to speak clearly, listen deeply, and lead authentically.

From classroom sharing and poetry recitations in the early years to debates, speeches, and capstone presentations in the Upper School, Tatnall students grow into articulate, poised communicators. They learn not only to express ideas but also to connect, persuade, inspire, and lead. In a world shaped by technology, the ability to speak with clarity, presence, and empathy remains timeless and essential.

Whether delivering a poem, leading a Community Gathering, or stepping onto a stage, our students grow into thoughtful, confident communicators — fully prepared to speak for themselves and for others.
