Here is a testimonial from a member of the JCHS debate team!
After just one year of debate, I believe that I have improved and grown tremendously not only as a debater but also as an individual. Debate teaches some of the most important life skills that anyone could possibly learn. It has several benefits and they can help you succeed in all areas of life, not just competitions. Research, critical thinking, and even public speaking skills are just some of the benefits that come with learning to be a good debater. -Madhu Balaji
