Middle School
Learn to debate. Properly.
A fall term for middle schoolers to build your debate fundamentals.
Fall 2026
Weekly Group Class
One two-hour class a week for the whole term, taught by CME coaching staff.
1-on-1 Lessons
A set number of hour-long individual sessions with a coach, scheduled around your family's calendar. The count is agreed when you enroll and written into your agreement. Reschedule with 24 hours' notice.
Makeup Sessions
Miss a group class and we cover the material one-on-one. A set number of makeups is included, so a sick day or a school event does not put your student behind.
Topic Prep
Cases, blocks, and evidence for the topics your student will debate this term, prepared by our staff and taught in class.
Tournament Schedule
We build a tournament schedule, tailored to your student's needs and goals.
Remote Tournament Support
A coach on call during tournaments for pre-round strategy and between-round debriefs.
Who this is for
Middle schoolers with no debate experience, a school club behind them, or a few tournaments already. The interest form asks where your student is starting from, and we build your schedule around that.
Tournament entry fees and travel are not included.
