Debate Club

Mission: The National Speech & Debate Association connects, supports, and inspires a diverse community committed to empowering students through speech and debate. Vision: We envision a world in which every school provides speech and debate programs to foster each student’s communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creative skills. Equity Statement: The National Speech & Debate Association is committed to modeling and fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion for all speech and debate communities. We are continuously transforming our organization to reflect and operationalize the values of equity, integrity, respect, leadership, and service. We will take responsibility. We will heed, learn, and evolve. We will work conscientiously to model and foster an inclusive and equitable speech and debate experience for all.

The Debate Club will meet on Mondays (Student Congress) and Tuesdays (Debate) from September through April. Students have the opportunity to compete in local scrimmages and VHSL tournaments.

Weekly and some weekends.

Students may learn more at Club Fair on 8/26/22 during MAP and may enroll in the Canvas course using bit.ly/midlodebate. To experience all the events, note the CCPS Speech & Debate Expo will be held at Meadowbrook High School on 9/15/22 from 5:30 p.m. -7:30 p.m.
