No Speech Class in High School

The petition

Sure, everyone needs to be able to communicate to others in an effective way. But, speech class can do as much harm as good. Not everyone can stand up in front of class and read a paper, speak fluently, and do fine. It can be a terrifying experience that can do potential harm. Even though I am only 15, I know what is best for me. And, I'm not the only one. Feeling nervous, scared, and frightened isn't a good thing to feel for a long period of time. Public speaking is a life skill that should be learned by ones-self, not in a classroom. So, I feel that speech class should be optional, or even taken away, for the better mental health of teenagers.
