Debate/Critical Thinking: Team
Similar to the popular competitive style of Public forum, teamwork is key in this debate format – students learn to listen, plan, and strategize with a partner. Students also work to develop strong cases, prepare to answer questions on the fly, and close out a debate for the win.

Public Speaking: Student Leadership
Make your message heard! Student Leadership encourages children to develop skills in diplomatic speaking, student advocacy, research, and writing. Students learn how to dialogue with elected officials, draft advocacy letters, and create presentations to create change.
