IRS990/Desc0The mission of DEBATE-Kansas City (DKC) is to improve academic performance and increase opportunities for urban students through participation in debate. This year, DKC provided 749 students at 36 school access to academic debate and the critical thinking skills it teaches. DKC manages one of 20 Urban Debate League's across the nation and works with 14 school districts in two states. DKC provides direct services to student and coaches and promotes public debate in the Kansas City community. DKC managed 15 tournaments with 1,752 entries and recruited 100 volunteers to provide hundreds of hours of services, largely judging debates. Most DKC debate programs are led by coaches that were hired without prior debate experience. Without DKC support, many of these programs would fail as coaches become overwhelmed. That is why DKC provided 960 hours of professional development for coaches at all 36 schools. DKC also conducted over 300 school visits to provide over 900 hours of direct coaching support to member schools. Additionally, DKC supports weekend competition outside the league, including a DKC sponsored trip for 20 students from three schools to compete at the prestigious Dowling Catholic Debate Tournament in Des Moines, Iowa. DKC also held three public debates, including, "Educating Kansas: A Public Debate over School Funding in the Sunflower State," which was sponsored by: The Arthur N. Rupe Foundation, The National Speech and Debate Association, Johnson County Community College, The Kansas City Star, University of Missouri-Kansas City and KCUR Public Radio. DKC's efforts received attention in seven different radio, TV and print stories. All of these efforts combined for a successful season of DKC programming and DKC maintained its 95% senior graduation rate. DKC's mission is driven by empirical data that shows had participation in debate increases ACT test scores, high school graduation rates, critical thinking and public speaking abilities and urban debaters are 80% more likely to earn a four-year college degree.
