Information for Teachers

Teachers will have an opportunity to swap ideas during the workshop. All of the teachers have an opportunity to eat together throughout the workshop and share ideas.

There are scheduled sessions for teachers in the Centennial Dining Room. Teachers should enroll in one division of the camp to receive all the handouts and materials for that division. We will have the Fine Arts Computer Lab and the Burch Hall Computer Lab for camp use. The lab holds computers with internet access and word processing.

Some teachers have signed up for a free room by agreeing to help coach students in the breakout sessions in one-on-one coaching or judging practice debate rounds and helping us supervise the evening activities and checking on dorm rooms. Niki Alderson coordinates the activities for the teacher sessions, please feel free to contact her further details or special needs.

Student Supervision and Security

All activities are closely supervised. Campers are housed in Shepler Center with camp staff assigned to rooms on the same floors with the students. Room checks by camp staff members take place at 11:00 p.m. each night. See the camp rules page for further information. Speech-Debate Camp Footer
