Debate Team

During the first quarter, the students did a debate about imperialism and whether or not it is a morally justifiable foreign policy. This quarter, they are working on a debate about FDR’s New Deal and the general effectiveness of welfare programs. Eighth graders tend to love a good argument, so formal debates are a great opportunity for them to practice civility, exercise logic, support their premises with evidence, and learn to work together on debate teams.
