Across the country high school students compete in formal debate every year. The topics they debate are carefully chosen. First a coach must research, write, and present a paper on the topic to a panel of judges. From there the top five topic areas are discussed by students and coaches and a final topic is chosen by popular vote. This year forty-seven delegates from nineteen states attended the NFHS Policy Debate Topic Selection Meeting from August 6-8, 2021 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Ten topic reports were presented, one of which was written by Farmington High School’s Debate Coach Rachel Baumann, along with the Rosemount Debate Coach, Nathan Wodarz.
