Debate

Engaging in state and national competition

Philosophy and competition

The Debate organization studies the elements and philosophies of the Lincoln-Douglas debate format. Our debate team competes in Class 4A of the Oklahoma Secondary Schools Activity Association (OSSAA) sanctioned debate competitions. The debate team meets weekly to practice in debates with one another.

Each year, the Debate team travels to Harvard University to compete with the best in the nation. For more information, please contact:
