A huge congratulations to our debate team for an incredible showing this past weekend at the third NYC Reads @nycdebateleague debate! We had many teams go undefeated across all divisions and some of the top speakers city-wide. We could not be more proud of each and every student for waking up early on a Saturday to show how much they’ve learned over the past months and to use their voices to make change. Go warriors!
