The History Behind the Teams














The North High School Debate Team started competition around 1990.
Since then, the team has grown into one of the largest and most successful
teams in the state. However, this was a project that required a lot
of work and many "growing pains" along the way. Here's just a glipse
at the tremendous amount of service and dedication devoted to North forensics.
