WHAT WE DO
WHAT WE DO
At LFA, students participate in a rigorous practice-centric debate curriculum, modelled after the systems of top-tier high school debate camps as well as Lexington High School’s own debate program. Our classes are separated into groups, allowing students the choice to engage in either a rigorous fast-paced system or a slower paced curriculum.
Our classes meet/convene every Saturday morning, lasting 2 hours long from 9am to 11am. The class is split into three parts, starting with quizzing and mini drills, then transitioning into a longer lecture, and finally finishing each class with hour long extensive debates and speech drills.
HOW WE ARE DIFFERENT
HOW WE ARE DIFFERENT
Our class differs from traditional beginner debate classes insofar as we try to focus on practical debate skills that can be utilized in everyday environments. Our holistic, pragmatic approach to learning also prioritizes the skills and knowledge that students need in rigorous high level debates akin to those at the high school level.

CRITICAL THINKING
CRITICAL THINKING
Critical thinking lies at the crux of success in the modern world. It is central to effectively assess situations and resolve matters, as well as key for problem solving and creativity. We work to develop students' critical thinking through rigorous drills, activities, and debates such that they will be able to think on their feet in the real world.

PUBLIC SPEAKING

As a premier institution for middle school debate, speaking skills also serve as a foundation for all that we do. More so than ever, speaking skills are a necessary part of one's future success, essential for day to day communication, and key for successful persuasion. LFA ensures all students walk away with an abundance of speaking experience, with consistent, targeted exercises and lectures to continuously refine student speaking skills.
