As members of the Harker Speech & Debate team, we strive to embody these values:
Teamwork:
We win and lose as a team.
We collaborate and openly communicate about our work with our teammates and coaches.
While we disclose information about rounds, we do not coach or prepare with other teams.
Growth Mindset:
Failure is part of learning, mistakes are an opportunity for improvement.
Feedback is an opportunity for growth.
Integrity:
We uphold ethical academic practices, including accurate open source citations, and faithfully represent our research.
We treat teammates, competitors, judges, coaches and spaces with respect.
Leadership:
We strive to be role models both inside and outside of rounds.
We treat team communication as academic spaces, representing ourselves, our team, and our community positively and with respect, regardless of experience level.
