2025 NCE Summer Explorations -grades 6-9

Learn to debate, speak, and deliver a speech in front of your supportive peers. Practice how to construct and support an argument, think critically, speak confidently, and listen thoughtfully as we will debate common ethical, moral, and philosophical questions. We will also introduce basic public philosophy problems such as “The Trolley Problem” as discussed on “The Good Place”. Members of the nationally-recognized NHS Speech and Debate Team will assist in the class.
