Recommended for ages 10-17, though capable younger students may also enroll on a provisional basis. Enrollment accepted year-round, as long as there is space in the class.

Ready Set Debate clubs model a high school or college debate team. Through practice debates, in-class exercises, home learning assignments, and personalized coach feedback, students develop the core skills of competitive debate, including examining propositions, researching, writing arguments, organizing speeches, conducting an effective cross-examination, weighing issues, identifying and combating logical fallacies, speaking persuasively, and judging. Older students serve as peer mentors for younger students.

Charter School FAQs

We will calculate a prorated tuition figure. Please contact us for more information.

We generally bill charter schools by semester, instead of by month, unless the student is joining mid-semester.

Our typical program semesters are September to January and February through June. However, it is easy for us to modify the length or calendar placement of a specific student’s semester based on their school’s needs; for example, if you want us to set up a January through May semester, that works fine. Please contact us for more information.
