In this special episode of The Voice of the District, Bridgeport Public Schools highlights the district’s Debate Program through the voices of two student debaters who share a preview of the upcoming Martin Luther King Jr. Day Debate.

Students discuss the importance of debate, critical thinking, and civic engagement, and reflect on how the program helps them develop confidence, leadership, and their voice. They also offer a teaser of the themes and topics that will be explored during the MLK Debate taking place on January 21 from 6:00 to 8:00 PM at the Margaret Morton Center.

This episode underscores the district’s commitment to student voice and academic enrichment while celebrating the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. through meaningful dialogue and student-led discourse.

Join us as we elevate student voices and invite the community to attend this powerful evening of debate and reflection.
