Centennial Community Education

Debate is a fun, interactive activity about using evidence, reasoning, and public speaking to win your argument. We will debate topics relevant to the school, your life, and society in general. We want debaters who are excited about arguing, practicing public speaking, and being part of a team community. If you have any questions, talk with Jonathan. After winter break, we will be participating in three debate tournaments against students from all over the Twin Cities. Let’s show them what Centennial Middle School can achieve!
