[quote=Anonymous]Most private schools are doing public forum instead of policy. The debate coach at one big 5 school told us that their kids didn't have the time needed to dedicate to policy but also that policy was dying on the vine. I gather this has been predicted ad nauseam over the years, and it's belied by the huge growth in urban debate leagues (for public school kids). Washington DC now has one (WUDL) that is growing exponentially. It's not top level debate yet, but the focus is policy, the people involved are great, it's very nurturing and supportive, and an excellent way to get a start. Our DC has done it for a few years and it's been a fantastic experience. I only wish there were more private school options to graduate to.[/quote]
