• Welcome to the Briar Woods Debate and Forensics Teams!

    Debate, or Forensics build highly sophisticated communication skills, especially useful to students planning to enter professions such as law, teaching, broadcasting, theater, etc. where public speaking is required.  Membership is open to all students in grades 9-12. New members are always welcome; no experience necessary.

    Briar Woods Debate Team and Briar Woods Forensics Team compete in the WACFL, the local unit of the National Debate League Association. Team members choose the format and meet in person weekly. Additional practice time may be scheduled as the competition date gets closer.

    If Spanish is your native language, and/or you feel confident debating in Spanish, we are looking to participate in the Spanish Language Policy debate competition at Harvard's University "Debate en Español."

    INTEREST MEETING MONDAY 9/20 @ 4:05 PM ROOM L501

    Our teams are looking to fill several Officer positions ASAP! For additional information, please visit our Debate and Forensics Teams'  website.

    Email Ms. Ramirez (diana.ramirez@lcps.org) if you have any questions.
