My Project

I believe our debaters are some of the most well-read teens in the country, and their in-depth expertise pays off in debate tournament wins.

Last year, the debaters requested a library to continue learning and begin sharing books.

They love reading complex critical theory, and having the books on hand at practice would be incredibly helpful. This year, there is a new debate topic (arctic development) and so the debaters have created a new reading list. The books requested are their curated list of what they want to read. Snacks and notetaking materials will help fuel them as they learn!
