Come join us as a Volunteer Judge at BDL's first high school debate tournament of the season!

Judges share their time and talent to uplift youth voice by listening to debate rounds, providing feedback, and determining a winner of debate rounds. During this shift you'll have the opportunity to judge two debate rounds.

Some additional details:

  • No debate experience is required (training will be provided to you).
  • Meals are served throughout the day.
  • You can read more about the position of a judge here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eEOMjW7-aCgzrq5uU0FBOcqt4mhuJu4Iz8SsxRfLPm8/edit?usp=sharing
  • After signing up, you'll receive an email with additional instructions to prepare you for your shift (including an additional shift sign-up, questionnaire form, eCORI form, and judge training to complete). Be on the lookout (including in your spam folder!).

Mission Statement

The Boston Debate League prepares young people for college, career, and engagement with the world through debate-inspired learning in the classroom and beyond.

Description

The Boston Debate League (BDL) is a non-profit organization that works in partnership with the Boston Public Schools (BPS) to support academic debate teams in local high schools and train BPS teachers to use debate as a regular part of their classroom practice. We offer debate and argumentation programs for young people in Greater Boston, with a commitment to serving students of color and other students who have been denied these educational opportunities. We tailor our programs to address the educational inequities they experience, and strive to create inclusive learning communities where all participants are welcome and supported in achieving the transformative, lifelong benefits of debate.
