NYC Reads
Since 2014, we have partnered with the New York City Department of Education’s NYC Reads initiative to bring debate to middle schools and help close the achievement gap. In 2024, the partnership expanded to include a high school debate elective, which is a proud recipient of the New York State Seal of Civic Readiness.
