WHAT IS SPEECH AND DEBATE?

Research. Writing. Speaking. Arguing.
Memorizing. Performing. Acting.
Effort. Dedication.
Magic.

ABOUT​
​Founded in 2006 by National Speech and Debate Association Hall of Fame coach Steven Davis, the Ardrey Kell Speech and Debate team has grown from a handful of enthusiastic students into the one of the largest programs in North Carolina in just a few short years.

With an ever-growing roster of championship-caliber competitors across all disciplines of speech and debate, our students have created an atmosphere of excellence that helps them to excel in competition, in the classroom, and in life. Our alumni regularly matriculate to some of the nation's most prestigious colleges and universities. The skills that they gain here are invaluable.

We hope that you will join our family this year. Go Knights!
